Okra curry
Okra is a very popular vegetable in India, probable the most popular of them all. Over the past few months our backyard garden has been producing a lot of vegetables, and the most abundant one is okra. So in order to appreciate our plentiful okra harvest we made the traditional dry okra curry. It is usually a side for the main rice meal but my favorite was to eat it is with roti, an Indian flatbread.
Ingredients
- 1 lb fresh okra
- 2 tbs coconut oil
- 1 tbs mustard seeds
- 1tsp salt
- 1 tsp turmeric powder
- 1 tsp cumin powder

Directions
- Cut the okra into small bite-size pieces
- Heat the oil in a shallow frying pan
- Add the mustard seeds and all the powdered spices and keep on medium flame until the seeds pop

- Garnish with fresh curry leaves and serve hot.
