OKRA WITH SCALLION, LIME, AND GINGER
Steaming unlocks the succulence of okra. Here, the pods are tossed with slivered ginger and a Vietnamese-inspired scallion oil in an all-purpose dish that's great with grilled steak or chicken, or with nothing more than a fragrant bowlful of jasmine rice.

Steps:
- In a heavy pot, heat 2 inches oil to 350 degrees. Place a thick layer of paper towels nearby. Working in batches to avoid crowding pan, fry okra until crisp, about 5 to 7 minutes. Seeds will swell and okra will be deeply colored at edges. Drain on paper towels.
- In a serving bowl, toss okra together with onion, tomatoes and cilantro. Squeeze lemon juice over all, and mix in salt and chaat masala. Taste and add more lemon, salt and masala as needed.
