Non-slimy okraButtermilk tangGujarati styleLight sabziGreat with rotli
Sneha V.✓ VERIFIEDAhmedabad · Home cook

“Bhindi without the hassle.”

Cutting and frying bhindi is so tedious. This gives me the same dahi-bhindi flavour without the effort. The okra is not slimy at all — nicely done.

“Great with rotli.”

Light, tangy, proper Gujarati-style sabzi. I pair it with store-bought rotli for a quick dinner. The buttermilk gives it a gentle tang that works really well.

How to heat

Two ways.
Either is foolproof.

Heat and eat, the way mum would, in minutes. Pick your way.

Also works on a tava with ghee, an induction plate, even an open-fire chulha.

Serve hot with phulka, jeera rice or a wedge of lemon.

Where it comes from

The recipe is from 1967.
The pouch is not.

Retort sealing is what lets a cooked dish keep without a single preservative. That part is new. What goes inside it is the food this kitchen has made since 1967.

Questions, answered

What people ask.

Does Dahi Bhindi have onion or garlic?

Yes, Dahi Bhindi is cooked with onion and garlic, so it is not Jain. For dishes without them, see no onion, no garlic and our Jain dishes.

What do you eat Dahi Bhindi with?

Serve it with rotis or rice.

Does Dahi Bhindi contain milk, nuts or wheat?

Dahi Bhindi contains milk. The full ingredient list is above, under Ingredients.

How do I heat Dahi Bhindi?

Drop the sealed pouch into boiling water for 5 minutes, then snip it open and serve. Or empty it into a covered bowl and microwave for 2 minutes, stirring once halfway. It keeps at room temperature, so there is nothing to thaw.

How long does Dahi Bhindi keep?

12 months from the manufacture date printed on the pouch, unopened, at room temperature, with no preservatives: it is sealed in a foil pouch and sterilised at 121°C. Once opened, eat it straight away, or refrigerate it and finish within 24 hours.

How many people does one pouch of Dahi Bhindi serve?

One 300g pouch serves about 2. It also comes in packs of 2 and 3.

Does it really not need refrigeration?

Correct. Our retort pouch is sealed with the air pressed out, then sterilised at 121°C — the same technology the Indian army and ISRO use. Store at room temperature for 12 months. Refrigerate only after opening.

Is the taste identical to fresh?

We won't say identical — fresh is always fresh. But the retort process locks in flavour and texture at the peak of cooking, so most customers can't tell the difference once it's heated through. For the closest result, heat it in a pan rather than the microwave.

Can I take it on a flight?

Yes — fully sealed retort pouches are allowed in checked baggage internationally. Many of our NRI customers do exactly this.

Do you ship outside India?

Yes, to most countries, on quote. Choose your country with the flag at the top of the page, fill your basket and tap Request a shipping quote: we reply with the total and a payment page on thakarkitchen.com.

Is it safe to pay in advance?

Yes. Payments are handled entirely by our payment gateway — we never see or store your card or UPI details. If your order can't be fulfilled for any reason, the full amount is refunded automatically. Orders above ₹799 ship free. All orders are paid online: we do not offer Cash on Delivery.
