Stir-Fried Okra (Recipe Included)
Sorry for the not-so-decent plate |
Ingredients:
400g fresh tender okra, rinsed and patted dry or 400g cut frozen okra
1-2 tbsp oil
2 tsp cumin seeds
1/3 large onion (about 80g), sliced
1/2 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp red chili powder or cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp ground turmeric
1/2 tsp salt
Juice of 1/4 lemon
1. Trim the ends off each okra pod and cut into small segments about approximately 1/2-inch (1.25-cm) in length.
2 .Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds—they should sizzle upon contact with the hot oil. Quickly add the onion and cook, stirring frequently, until golden, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the okra and fry, stirring every now and then on low heat, for 7 minutes. The onion will be light brown by this time. Add the ground spices and salt and saute for another 2 minutes
.
Add the lemon juice and cook, stirring gently, for another minute.
Serve hot.
Tips for cooking non-slimy-texture okra: always wipe okra dry before cutting it, always cook it without a lid, and do not stir it too much while cooking.
