In a pressure cooker fry meat cubes with 1 tbsp vegetable oil for 1 minute before adding cinnamon sticks, cardamom, salt and pepper. Add 1 litre of water and close pressure cooker cover securely. Cook for 45 minutes at highest pressure (achieved when steam starts escaping). Remove from heat and let pressure drop before opening cooker cover (achieved when all steam escapes).

Strain. Reserve the meat broth and place cooked meat cubes aside making sure you remove the cinnamon sticks.

In a small skillet fry crushed garlic and chopped coriander with ½ tbsp of vegetable oil.

In a deep cooking pot, fry the whole garlic cloves with 1 tbsp vegetable oil until golden then add the Okra, sliced tomatoes, lemon juice, and salt. Stir occasionally not by using a spoon but by shaking the pot and flipping ingredients in it until okra turns yellow in colour.

Add cooked meat cubes, fried garlic and coriander to the okra mixture. Add the meat broth and allow boiling on high heat for an additional 5 minutes.

Finally transfer okra stew to a serving dish
