OKRA

Description

Okra is a vegetable popular in many cuisines, mainly African, Middle Eastern, and South Asian. It is also known as “lady’s finger” due to its long, thin shape, typically green or sometimes red. Okra is rich in vitamins and minerals and is low in calories, making it a healthy addition to any diet. It has a slightly slimy texture when cooked, which some people find off-putting, but it can be prepared in many ways, including fried, boiled, or roasted, and is often used in stews and soups.
