8 steps

Ingredients

  • 200 g okra
  • 1 tablespoon cooking oil
  • 2 tablespoons coriander powder
  • 1 tablespoon cumin powder
  • 1 teaspoon amchur powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper, less for those who do not want it too spicy or 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 14 teaspoon turmeric powder (omit if using the black pepper) (optional)
  • salt

Directions

  1. 1
    Wash and dry the okras.
  2. 2
    Remove the ends and then make a slit (not completely) through lengthwise so that you can stuff the spices into the okra.
  3. 3
    Do not cut the okra through and through.
  4. 4
    Mix all the spices and seasonings and stuff a small amount of the mix in each okra.
  5. 5
    Place the okras in a skillet and sprinkle with oil (I use a non stick).
  6. 6
    Cook stirring gently and occasionally from time to time so that it does not burn.
  7. 7
    YOu can also make this in a microwave on high for 3- 4 minutes.
  8. 8
    I love this with a dal and meat accompaniment or with phulkas.
