Ingredients

  • Okra, chopped into sm. rounds

    In a large saucepan or pot, saute the onions on medium high heat.

    Add the salt, cumin and chili powder/peppers once onions are translucent.

    Fry until the okra is very well done, stirring often.

    Note the gooey, web-like strands.

    The okra will go from raw green to bright green to a darker green.

    It will also have shrunk considerably.

    If you don't end up using enough oil (like me), you'll have to stir even more.
  9. 9
    Sprinkle with lime/lemon juice and serve with bread (chapati is best; pita or naan would also go okay; or some other bread).
