Hi, My local take away recently changed hands. They used to do bhindi
bhajis in a style I really like - dry and chopped up with onion. The
Ocra are style slightly crunchy. I could eat that dish all day.

the new management have a new chef , and  the bhindis are served whole
in a lot of sauce , and this is the style I have mostly seen in
Restaurants, and it's not as good as "dry style " IMHO

My question is  this . is there a name or style for the dry chopped
type i.e is if from a region. I'll ask them if they'll do it that way

In India it's known as 'Bhindi fry'.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Barbeques on fire by the chalets past the castle headland
I watched the gift shops glitter in the darkness off the Newborough gate
All these moments will be lost in time,  like icecream on the beach
Time for tea.

Julie Sahni, in "Classic Indian Cooking", has several recipes. 
Bhindi Sabzi: stir fried rounds cooked (possibly with green 
chillies) until a little brown, Bhoni Bhindi: crisp fried rounds 
often included in Yoghurt salad, spicy ground meat or pilaf and 
Bhindi Barva: stuffed okra. None of these involve onions, 
AFAICT.

I was just reporting what I had for lunch Shobar on the LJ Road in Bombay 
yesterday.

Whether it's classical cooking or not I don't really know.

charity to satisfy our curiosity which
seeks for variety, by that variety which still leads us to the one thing
needful. For one thing alone is needful, and we love variety; and God
satisfies both by these varieties, which lead to the one thing needful.

The Jews have so much loved the shadows and have so strictly expected them
that they have misunderstood the reality, when it came in the time and
manner foretold.

The Rabbis take the breasts of the Spouse for types, and all that does not
express the only end they have, namely, temporal good.

And Christians take even the Eucharist as a type of the glory at which they
aim.

671. The Jews, who have been called to subdue nations and kings, have been
the slaves of sin; and the Christians, whose calling has been to be servants
and subjects, are free children.

672. A formal point.--When Saint Peter and the Apostles deliberated about
abolishing circumcision, where it was a question of acting against the law
of God, they did not heed the prophets, but simply the reception of the Holy
Spirit in the persons uncircumcised.

They thought it more certain that God approved of those whom He filled with
His Spirit than it was that the law must be obeyed. They knew that the end
of the law was only the Holy Spirit; and that thus, as men certainly had
this without circumcision, it was not necessary.

673. Fac secundum exemplar quod tibi ostensum est in monte.126--The Jewish
religion then has been formed on its likeness to the truth of the Messiah;
and the truth of the Messiah has been recognised by the religion, which was
the type of it.

Among the Jews the truth was only typified; in heaven it is revealed.

In the Church it is hidden and recognised by its resemblance to the type.

The type has been made according to the truth, and the truth has been
recognised according to the type.

Saint Paul says himself that people will forbid

part in it in an indisputable manner; but as it exists only by
Jesus Christ, and for Jesus Christ, and to teach men both their corruption
and their redemption, all displays the proofs of these two truths.

All appearance indicates neither a total exclusion nor a manifest presence
of divinity, but the presence of a God who hides himself. Everything bears
this character.

.. Shall he alone who knows his nature know it only to be miserable? Shall
he alone who knows it be alone unhappy?

.. He must not see nothing at all, nor must he see sufficient for him to
believe he possesses it; but he must see enough to know that he has lost it.
For to know of his loss, he must see and not see; and that is exactly the
state in which he naturally is.

.. Whatever part he takes, I shall not leave him at rest.

557.... It is, then, true that everything teaches man his condition, but he
must understand this well. For it is not true that all reveals God, and it
is not true that all conceals God. But it is at the same time true that He
hides Himself from those who tempt Him, and that He reveals Himself to those
who seek Him, because men are both unworthy and capable of God; unworthy by
their corruption, capable by their original nature.

558. What shall we conclude from all our darkness, but our unworthiness?

559. If there never had been any appearance of God, this eternal deprivation
would have been equivocal, and might have as well corresponded with the
absence of all divinity, as with the unworthiness of men to know Him; but
His occasional, though not continual, appearances remove the ambiguity. If
He appeared once, He exists always; and thus we cannot but conclude both
that there is a God and that men are unworthy of Him.

560. We do not understand the glorious state of Adam, nor the nature of his
sin, nor the transmission of it to us. These are matters which took place
under conditions of a nature altogether different from our own and

I hope the actual author of this post is enjoying adding other
