MASALA OKRA

Okra, or "lady's finger” is a very popular Indian vegetable. Here the pods are stir-fried with a dry masala mixture to make a tasty side dish.
Serves :

Preparation Method :

  • Wash, dry, and trim the stalks away from the top of the okra, being careful not to pierce the pod itself. Set the okra aside.

  • Heat the oil in a large, heavy pan. Add the cumin seeds and mustard seeds, and fry for about 2 minutes or until they start to splutter.
  • Scrape in the spice mixture and continue to fry for 2 minutes.
  • Add the okra, cover, and cook over low heat for 10 minutes, or until tender.
