This recipe was a bit too time-consuming for me. I think I'll try a different okra recipe next time.

I'm not a big fan of okra, but I thought this recipe was pretty good. The curry sauce was flavorful and the okra was cooked well.

This dish was okay, but I've had better. I think I'll stick to my usual okra recipe.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I think it could use more spices.

This dish was too spicy for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less cayenne pepper next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my okra turned out slimy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

This dish was easy to make and packed with flavor. I loved the creamy texture of the chickpeas and the slight crunch of the okra. The curry sauce was the perfect finishing touch.

This curried okra dish was a delight! The combination of okra, chickpeas, and tomatoes was perfect, and the curry spices added a wonderful depth of flavor. I especially loved the hint of heat from the cayenne pepper.
