Growing Okra
Okra is an exceptional garden crop for the hot summer months in Florida.
Wash and dry the okra. Remove ends and make a small vertical cut, being careful not to cut all the way through. Mix all the dry ingredients, add the ground ginger and chopped green chili (if using). Mix well. Gently open the okra and fill with spice mixture. Add sunflower oil to a pan over medium heat. Place the okra in the pan and cook for 2 minutes. Stir okra gently to prevent from burning. Add water, cover and cook about 7 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat and serve.
