Directions

  1. Heat the oil in a large skillet, cook and stir the bell pepper in the hot oil until softened slightly, about 3 minutes. Stir the jalapeno peppers, ginger, garlic, and bay leaves into the bell pepper, cook until fragrant, about 2 to 3 minutes more. Season with the coriander, red pepper, turmeric, cumin seeds, cardamom, black pepper, and cinnamon, cook and stir another 2 minutes. Add the tomato slices and raisins to the mixture, continue cooking 3 more minutes. Mix the okra thoroughly into the mixture to coat with the spices.

  2. Stir the coconut milk and water together in a small bowl, pour into the mixture. Cover the skillet and cook covered until the okra is tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Add water if needed to keep moist. Season with salt. Serve warm.

Recipe Note

This is okra in coconut milk curry. Very simple to make and great with rice and naan for a complete meal. A spicy and very creamy vegan curry that will even please non-vegans. If you like more spice, use more peppers or other spices to your liking.
