Okra 200g

Fresh, tender okra, picked and packed for your table. Also known as lady's fingers, okra is a favourite in curries, gumbos, stir-fries and slow-cooked stews, where it soaks up flavour and adds a lovely silky body to the pot.

How to enjoy it: Slice and sauté with onion, tomato and spices. Roast whole with olive oil and salt until crisp at the edges. Or toss it into your next stew or curry.

Tips: Keep it dry and store it unwashed in the fridge in a paper bag, then use within a few days. For less sliminess, cook it hot and fast, or roast it whole.
