A Great recipe to learn about Okra! I'ts really Good!


Suzanne’s Okra Masala
This is my version of Okra Masala it is a lighter version of the Indian classic Masalas.  I find, that I can make this dish at home quickly and have it on the table with ease.  I even can do other tasks that need doing before we eat.
Again a make lots kind of dish, this freezes well.

Ingredients
2 lbs fresh or frozen okra (diced into med size chunks)
1 medium onion diced
3 cloves garlic diced
1 tsp chili oil
1 tsp gram masala
½ tsp turmeric
1 tsp cumin
1tsp agave nectar
4 tlbs olive oil
½ cup sun dried tomatoes ( soaked and diced )
1 can whole tomatoes ( diced )
Optional raw green mango (diced fine)


Directions
Wash okra, cut up into bite size chunks
Heat oil in a large fry pan.  Sauté onion and garlic till starting to brown, add the dry spices and let saute for a minute.  Add the diced Okra and stir to combine favours.
Continue to sauté till starting to cook down a little. Cover and cook for 10 to 20 minutes.

Serve with rice or a salad
