We just joined a foodie group in our local area in which a company called Veritable Vegetable and Mountain View Market Coop work together to bring us fresh, organically grown produce and fruit. This week they brought us Okra. So, I made Okra Curry (Bhendi Sabji) on page 110. I've never cooked okra before because I was concerned about the slimy texture. A professional chef advised me to cut the okra the night before and let it dry on a cookie sheet overnight. I did this and it worked great. Delicious, and slime free. DH loved it and he has refused to eat okra all his life.
