In India, okra is commonly referred to as “ladyfingers,” not to be confused with the Italian cookies of that name. Be sure to crisp up the okra well or it will become mushy after you add it to the yogurt. You can add grated fresh coconut to the yogurt and okra if you’d like. This cooling side dish is very refreshing in the summer.
Ingredients
15 to 20 1 quart 800 ml 1
Method
- Wash the okra and pat dry with paper towels. Thinly slice the okra and spread out on paper towels for about 10 minutes.
- Place a nonstick deep wok over high heat and add the oil. When small bubbles appear at the bottom of the wok, slide in the okra and fry until lightly browned and crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Let cool to room te
