Stir in tomatoes with juice, okra, tomato paste, salt, pepper, and spices and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until stew is slightly thickened, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice. Cool, uncovered, and serve warm or at room temperature. Stir in parsley and salt to taste just before serving.","2":"Flavors mature overnight; can be made a day in advance. Pair with bulgar or grilled lamb."}
