Directions
Bamya Alich’a (Ethiopian-Style Okra), Can be served hot or at room temperature If you really don’t like the texture from the okra, split the pods, soak overnight in water, and drain well before cooking From The Africa Cookbook , More garlic and the chicken stock were very good recommendations
It’s not bad but it’s still missing something and I’m not sure exactly what
Using cups for the okra and tsp for garlic is a little weird too – what exactly is 4 cups of okra ?? It depends on how you chop it Buy a kitchen scale!
used:
1lb string beans
1/2lb okra
1/4 cup olive oil
2 red onions (0 75lb total)
1lb tomato
2 tsp ginger
1 tsp cardamom
4 cloves of garlic
1 jalapeno (seeded)
1 cup of chicken stock
and salt to taste
some butter might be a good idea too , A delicious and relatively easy dish I tweaked it a little bit though I doubled the garlic (cuz I like garlic); I did not peel or seed the tomatoes (cuz I’m lazy); I added about a cup of long beans cup to 1-inch pieces (cuz I had a bunch from my garden); and I added a cup of chicken stock right at the end (cuz I wanted to make sauce/gravy so I could serve it over rice) Thanks ‘realbirdlady’ for sharing the recipe!
