Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon duck fat (or 2 tbsp oil)
  • 600 g okra (frozen. 22 oz)
  • 2 teaspoons oil
  • 3 tablespoons ginger (fresh, grated. 3 cm / 1 inch of ginger root)
  • 8 cloves garlic (minced. 2 tbsp from a jar or 2 teaspoons garlic powder)
  • 2 tsp coriander ground
  • 1 teaspoon garam masala
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon fenugreek leaves (crushed, dried. Optional)
  • ½ teaspoon amchur powder (aka dry mango powder)
  • ½ teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 half-litre jar Minnesota mix (1 pint)
Metric - US Customary

Instructions

  • Sauté okra in duck fat until fork tender. Remove from pot, set aside.
  • To the pot, add everything from the oil down to the chili powder. Sauté over medium heat until the raw smell leaves the ginger and garlic, and the spices smell a bit toasted: about 5 minutes.
  • Add the jar of Minnesota mix, stir, and simmer over medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes just to drive a bit of the liquid off.
  • Add the okra back to the pot, stir, heat through.
  • Send to the table.

Notes

Instead of the frozen okra, you can use a fresh equivalent. You could try using home canned okra, though it may be too soft.
The amchur / mango powder is a souring agent. Instead of that, you can use dried sumac, or 1 tbsp lemon juice
If desired, serve garnished with some fresh, chopped coriander leaves (aka cilantro.)

Quote of the day

“…spoilage isn’t necessary when canning is no longer a matter of hit-and-miss luck, but a careful science, and when every home canner can have help from reliable sources.”
