Ingredients
-
2 tablespoons safflower oil or grapeseed oil
-
½ teaspoon black or brown mustard seeds
-
½ teaspoon cumin seeds
-
8 -10 fresh curry leaves (optional)
-
1 large onion, thinly sliced
-
1 1/4 pounds okra, trimmed and sliced 1/2 inch thick (about 5 cups sliced), or two 10-ounce bags frozen sliced okra, thawed
-
2 teaspoons ground coriander
-
1 teaspoon paprika
-
¾ teaspoon kosher salt
-
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
-
1/2-1 teaspoon hot Indian chili powder, such as reshampatti, or 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Directions
-
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Sprinkle in a few mustard seeds to test the oil--it's hot enough when the seeds sizzle and pop. Quickly add the remaining mustard seeds, cumin seeds and curry leaves (if using); cook, stirring, until very fragrant, about 1 minute, covering the pan as needed to contain any splattering.
-
Reduce heat to medium, add onion and cook, stirring, until it is starting to brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Add okra, increase heat to medium-high and cook, stirring often, until the "goo" or mucilage from the okra starts to release and the onion darkens, 4 to 6 minutes more.
-
Add coriander, paprika, salt, turmeric and chili powder to taste (or cayenne); cook, stirring often, until the okra is browned in spots and the vegetables look very dry, 6 to 10 minutes more.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
