<h4 class="step-title">Step 1</h4>
In a large bowl, mix chickpea flour, cayenne pepper, turmeric powder, chaat masala, garam masala, and salt. Gradually add water and whisk until a smooth, thick batter forms that can coat the back of a spoon. Let this batter sit for 10 minutes to thicken slightly.</li>
<li class="MethodStepper">
<h4 class="step-title">Step 2</h4>
While the batter rests, heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or a deep fryer to 180°C (356°F). The oil should be enough for deep frying, with at least 2 inches depth.</li>
<li class="MethodStepper">
<h4 class="step-title">Step 3</h4>
Dip each piece of sliced okra into the batter to coat it evenly. Allow the excess batter to drip off before gently sliding the okra into the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pan; fry in batches if necessary.</li>
<li class="MethodStepper">
<h4 class="step-title">Step 4</h4>
Fry the battered okra for 3-4 minutes or until they are crisp and golden brown, turning them once halfway through the frying process. Use a slotted spoon to remove the fries from the oil and drain them on paper towels to remove excess oil.</li>
<li class="MethodStepper">
<h4 class="step-title">Step 5</h4>
Once all the okra fries are fried and drained, sprinkle them with a little more chaat masala to taste. Serve hot garnished with fresh coriander leaves and lemon wedges on the side, if desired.</li>
