Assam is one of the north eastern states of India. This beautiful state reminds of the awakening smell of tea.
For todays marathon I'm presenting a vegetarian dish "Bhindi Sorsori" means okra in mustard sauce. It is a simple & delicious curry with mild flavors. I made a few changes but the basics of the recipe are same.It went very well along with rice & roti.
