Okra (Ladies Fingers) Curry Recipe
Category: Curries
Rating: 4.17
Servings: 2


Ingredients

225 gm okra (ladies fingers)
3 tablespoon oil
1 grated flesh of 1/2 coconut
1/2 teaspoon chilli powder
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon ground cummin
225 gm yoghurt
1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 red chilli, cut into pieces
1 sprig coriander leaves
1 4-6 curry leaves
1 salt



Directions: How to Cook Okra (Ladies Fingers) Curry

Wash the okra and dry them on absorbent kitchen paper. Cut into 2.5cm lengths.

Heat 1 Tbs oil and fry the okra for about 2 minutes, turning gently, until all the oil has been absorbed. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.

Blend the coconut with the chilli powder, turmeric and cumin in a blender, adding 1 Tbs water to make a smooth paste. Mix this into the yoghurt.

Heat the remaining oil and when hot, add the mustard seeds and red chilli. Let them sizzle for a few seconds, until all the seeds have popped, then add the okra.

Turn the heat down and add the yoghurt mix. Cook gently for 2-3 minutes, stirring to prevent the yoghurt from separating, until hot through. Add the coriander and curry leaves, and salt to taste.

Most okra recipes involve a tomato and onion based sauce. This is a very good, relatively simple alternative. It's a great additional way to enjoy okra.
