My thoughts:

I know okra tin terminate live a flake of divisive vegetable simply I dear it. It's hold out inwards flavor at nowadays as well as thus it is the perfect fourth dimension to experiment amongst a novel recipe. Frozen okra is fine inwards a pinch simply fresh okra has such a frail flavor as well as an amazing crisp texture that its a shame non to cause got wages of its availability.

We went to a novel to us Mediterranean grocery this weekend that had a ton of Lebanese ingredients as well as thus I stocked upwards amongst a few essentials including this spice mix as well as approximately mahlab. I had the okra at habitation as well as thus I idea I'd brand a version of the okra stew that is as well as thus pop inwards that region. When I've had it, it has had beef or lamb inwards it simply since nosotros were likewise grilling approximately beef kofta, I idea I'd brand a vegetarian version as well as used chickpeas to volume it upwards a bit. Normally I intend I'd serve it amongst rice simply nosotros are oddly out of all rice except Japanese curt grain as well as thus I made approximately spiced couscous instead. I served it equally a side as well as had a massive total of leftovers simply it would likewise brand a wonderful principal dish. It's fresh-tasting (bonus points if y'all purpose fresh tomatoes) as well as total of warm spices. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 existent pleasance inwards belatedly August.
