ingredients
- 113.39 g okra
- 1 onion
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 tomatoes
- 14.79 ml oil
- 4.92 ml tomato puree
- salt
- pepper
- 1.23 ml sugar
- 2.46 ml mixed herbs
- 4.92 ml lemon juice
- 118.29 ml water
directions
- Top and tail the okra, rinse in cold water. Peel and slice the onion. Peel and finely chop the fresh garlic. Wash and chop the fresh tomatoes.
- Heat the oil in a pan over a moderate heat, and fry the onion and garlic gently for 3-4 minutes, until softened but not browned. Add the okra, and continue to cook gently for a further 4-5 minutes, until beginning to soften.
- Add the chopped tomatoes, tomato puree or ketchup, salt, pepper, sugar, herbs, and lemon juice. Add about 1/2 cup of water or tomato juice, just enough to half cover the vegetables in the pan, and simmer for 20-30 minutes, until the okra is tender.
- Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Serve hot or cold (but I prefer it hot).
