My East Indian girlfriend taught me this spicy side dish. Serve hot with any kind of fish, poultry, or meat.

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons mango powder (amchur)
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
½ teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon vegetable oil
1 pound large okra
¼ cup corn flour
vegetable oil for frying

Steps:

  • Combine mango powder, ginger, cumin, turmeric, chili powder, salt, and 1/2 teaspoon oil together in a bowl; set aside for flavors to blend for 2 hours.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Trim okra and make a slit lengthwise down the side of each okra, creating a pocket. Fill each pocket with the spice mixture.
  • Place corn flour in a resealable plastic bag; add filled okra and shake to coat.
  • Fry okra in the hot oil until golden brown, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer fried okra using a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate.

I was hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of okra, but I'm so glad I did!
