      This was amazingly good! Such a lovely way to make okra, DH liked it too! After slicing the okra lengthwise, I did what most Indian women do- dry roast the slices in a non-stick pan or iron skillet for a few minutes, tossing them about every minute or so. This gets rid of the 'snotty' mucilage. Also, instead of adding everything at once, I first added the nigella, fennel and cumin seeds in hot oil and let them spatter a bit before adding the onions. Once the onions were transluscent I added the red chili and turmeric powder and let them cook for a few minutes to get rid of the raw taste. Next went the tomatoes, okra, green chillies, sugar-lime mixture and salt and left them to simmer. Mango powder is best added towards the end of cooking.All in all, this was a very enjoyable dish and I will be definitely making this again. Thanks grapefruit!

      If I were to make this recipe a 2nd time I would cook the onions separately, double the sugar, halve the limejuice and fry the *whole* spices with the Okra. It was tasty, if a little too crunchy (onions) and mucilagenous (Okra).
