Tips for making okra stew more delicious
Saffron makes okra stew more delicious.
Add the okra to the rest of the ingredients when the meat is cooked an hour earlier.
To make the stew more colorful, you can add one or two roasted tomatoes with okra.
To prevent the stew from slipping during cooking, add some okra tail.
After adding the okra to the ingredients, do not overcook the stew until it is crushed, as it will make the stew viscous during cooking.
Frying okra also prevents them from slipping into stew.
