Note & Pro Cooking Tips

Pro Tips

Okra tends to release a slimy substance when cooked, which can be unappetizing for some people. To minimize the sliminess, make sure the okra is completely dry before slicing it. Also, avoid overcooking the okra.
If you prefer a less spicy dish, reduce the amount of red chili powder or omit it altogether.
You can also add some other spices like garam masala or amchur (dried mango powder) to enhance the flavor of the dish.
To make the dish more nutritious, you can add some chopped vegetables like carrots or bell peppers along with the okra and tomatoes.
For a more authentic Indian flavor, you can use mustard oil instead of regular oil for cooking.
If you want to make the dish more flavorful, you can roast the okra in the oven before adding it to the pan. This will also help to reduce the sliminess of the okra.
You can also add some fresh herbs like cilantro or mint to garnish the dish before serving.
To make the dish more visually appealing, you can sprinkle some chaat masala or roasted cumin powder on top.
If you're serving the dish with rice, you can add some fried onions on top for extra crunch and flavor.
Hope these tips help you make the perfect Indian okra with tomatoes!
