Okra, Corn and Tomatoes Stir Fry
The South Arm Multicultural Community Kitchen made a stir fry vegetable dish to be served with basmati rice.
This Okra, Corn and Tomatoes Stir Fry is Minoo’s favourite okra recipe.
Minoo shared a remedy of drinking okra water which is believed to help lessen diabetes symptoms. Okra water is made by putting sliced okra in warm water and soak them overnight.
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
