Ingredients

• Cumin seeds - 1 teaspoon
• Coriander powder - 1 teaspoon
• Garam masala - 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt - to taste
• Coconut oil - 2 tablespoons

Steps

1. Wash the okra thoroughly and pat it dry. Trim the edges and cut them into 1-inch pieces.
2. Heat coconut oil in a pan over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter.
3. Add sliced onions to the pan and sauté until they turn translucent.
4. Stir in grated ginger, minced garlic, and slit green chili, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
