Heat about 1 tablespoon of oil in a pan on medium heat.
Once hot add half of the bhindi, stir well. Add only enough okra that they are almost in a single layer. Do not overcrowd the pan.
Continue cooking and stir occasionally for even cooking and to make sure that it is not sticking to the pan.
Cook till they are cooked completely.
Remove this cooked bhindi into a plate.
Heat another 1 tablespoon of oil and fry the remaining bhindi similarly.
In the same pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil on medium heat.
Once hot add sliced onions and sprinkle the salt over it. Mix well.
