Okra Curry

Okra is a very popular edible plant in Sri Lanka. It is also known as "lady fingers" due to its long and slender shape. It has a slimy texture (when cut, it produces a liquid used to thicken stews) and is a great source of nutrients, notably high in fiber and vitamin C. If you're trying to maintain a balanced weight, okra is an ideal choice for your diet as it is a low-calorie vegetable. Here is a recipe that is not only easy and quick but also tastes spectacular.
