This is an East Indian inspired okra dish. Serve it hot with Indian bread or steamed rice.
Ingredients:
1/4 c. vegetable oil
5 to 10 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
2 fresh green chilies, finely chopped
1 t. ground turmeric
1 t. ground cumin
3 lb. okra, washed, dried, and ends cut off
1 medium ripe tomato
salt to taste
Directions:
1. Heat the oil in a large saucepan. Add the okra, garlic, and green chilies.
2. Saute over medium heat until browned.
3. Stir in the turmeric, cumin, tomato and salt.
4. Cover, reduce the heat, and simmer for 8 to 10 minutes, until the okra is tender, stirring occasionally to prevent the tomatoes and spices from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
5. Serve hot with Indian bread or steamed rice.
