Ingredients

  • 400 grams okra, halved lengthwise
  • 1/2 teaspoon ginger paste
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic paste
  • 1/2 teaspoon gram flour
  • 2 tablespoons semolina
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin powder
  • 1 teaspoon coriander powder
  • 1 teaspoon rice flour
  • 1 teaspoon chilli powder
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • Salt, to taste

Method

  • Preheat oven to 200 C / 400 F and line a baking tray with parchment or aluminium foil.
  • Place the okra in a large bowl and toss with the garlic and ginger paste. Add the rest of the dry ingredients and using your fingers, coat the okra evenly with the spices.
  • Lay the okra on the baking tray in a single layer and sprinkle over any remaining spice mix from the bowl. Bake for 30 - 35 minutes, turning it once halfway through. Keep an eye on it after about 20 minutes to ensure that it doesn't darken too quickly. Serve immediately.
