Hello everyone. I believe many people stir fry okra when they cook it, but stir frying like that
can be a bit heating. Today I'm going to share with you a different way to cook it. You definitely
haven't tried this method. Okra made this way is fragrant and flavorful. It tastes great and
doesn't heat up your body. The best part is that it's very simple to make. Let me show you how I
First, prepare some fresh okra and put it in a bowl. Add a spoonful of regular flour to the okra.
Then pour in a small bowl of water. Give the okra a good wash. We all know that okra has a fuzzy
surface. If not cleaned well, it can make your throat itch when you eat it. And some people
might be allergic. So adding a bit of regular flour helps clean the okra thoroughly. After
the first wash, put it back in the bowl. Then pour in another bowl of water. Wash it again.
Once the fuzz is all gone, drain the water and place the okra on a cutting board. Use a knife
to cut off the tops of the okra. This is because older okra can be tough. By the way, in my hometown,
okra is also called western chili. Do you know this term? Once all the okra is prepared,
set it aside. Next, we'll prepare the sauce. One spoon of salt. One spoon of sugar.
One spoon of light soy sauce. One spoon of oyster sauce to enhance the flavor. A little bit of
pepper. Add some sesame oil. 99 grains of chicken essence. One spoon of regular flour. And a small
bowl of water. Use a spoon to stir it all together. Preparing the sauce ahead of time
saves cooking time, so you won't be rushed when stir-frying. Once everything is mixed,
set it aside. Next, prepare a steamer. Place the okra in the steamer. Cover it and steam for about
eight minutes. Once the eight minutes are up, open the lid and check. Use tongs to take it out.
Put it on the table to cool. After it cools, place it on a cutting board.
Cut the okra in half. Now our okra is fully cooked. A light fragrance fills the air. And
the color looks beautiful. Separate the okra pieces. This method makes the okra taste sweet
and crisp. Cut the okra into pieces. It's so easy to eat. One piece per bite is just perfect.
Place the cut okra on a plate. Arrange them neatly. This way the okra looks
even more appetizing. If you've watched the video till here, please give me a thumbs up
if it's been helpful. Every like and comment motivates me to keep going. Thank you for your
support. Now, arrange the okra neatly on the plate. It looks so delicious. Next, add a little
oil to the pan. Once the oil is hot, add the minced meat. Cook on low heat to fry the meat
until fragrant. Stir fry until it changes color. Make sure you cook it a little longer
until the minced meat turns golden and crispy. Once fragrant, add chopped garlic and green
onions to the pan. Stir fry quickly on medium low heat to release the garlic fragrance.
Once the meat is fully cooked and fragrant, add the prepared sauce to the pan. Increase the heat
and bring the sauce to a boil. Let the seasonings melt and blend together. Continue to cook until
the sauce thickens. Once the sauce is thick, add some red chili peppers. If you don't like spice,
you can leave them out. Continue to cook on high heat to reduce the sauce. Let the chili cook
through. Once it looks like this, it's done. Now pour the sauce over the okra, and it's ready
to enjoy. A delicious, flavorful okra dish is ready to serve. If you think this looks good,
be sure to save it and give it a try. If you like my video, remember to like, comment, follow,
