Ingredients

Directions

  1. Wash the okra thoroughly and gently scrape the surface to remove any fuzz. Pat completely dry with paper towels.
  2. Trim the stems and slice the okra lengthwise into paper-thin slivers.
  3. Slice the onion into thin slivers.
  4. Heat the ghee in a skillet over moderate heat.
  5. Add the onion slivers and salt. Stir frequently for 7-8 minutes until the onions are golden brown, watching carefully to prevent burning.
  6. Add the sliced okra, ground cumin, and black pepper to the skillet.
  7. Fry, lifting and turning the vegetables constantly, for 25 minutes until the okra is tender and most of the liquid has evaporated.
  8. Serve immediately from a heated bowl.
