Dehydrated Organic Okra/ Ladies' Fingers 50G (Abelmoschus esculentus, Okro)

Description

Description
Okra or Okro (US: /okr/, UK: /kr/), Abelmoschus esculentus, often known as ladies' fingers or ochro in many English-speaking countries, is a blooming plant in the mallow family. It bears green seed pods that are delicious. Okra's geographical origins are debated, with advocates claiming West African, Ethiopian, Southeast Asian, and South Asian roots. The plant is grown in tropical, subtropical, and warm temperate locations all over the world, and it is a popular ingredient in Southern American cuisine, Middle Eastern food, Indian cuisine, Brazilian cuisine, and Sri Lankan cuisine.
How to consume
1. Fried. It's a "simple Southern favorite," dredged in egg and cornmeal and fried to a golden crisp. Make it curried for a unique spin.
2. Of course, gumbo. There are several recipes online for it using fish, chicken and sausage, or no meat at all. If you're short on time, check out the variation from Cooking for Engineers.
3. Oven roast It may be seasoned simply with olive oil, salt, and pepper, or it can be drowned in spices. Maybe, as Cooking Books blogger Andrea promises, this fiery version will convert me to an okra believer.
4. Stew. If you don't like okra on its own, disguise it with stronger tastes and textures, such as this tomato-based lamb and okra stew or bamya, an Egyptian stew cooked with beef stock.
5th. Pickles Or, as one blogger calls them, "wickles" (wicked sweet and spicy pickles). Spicy food appears to be popular—- Alton Brown's recipe contains dried chilis and black peppercorns, while Ladybird Johnson's pickled okra recipe has spicy peppers.
