Description

Okra
In the Afghan language, it sounds a little bit different- Boma. Rare places for our vegetable. It is often sold frozen and has different names: okra, Gombo, lady's fingers (lady\'s fingers). The first time I tried it when I arrived in London, her husband bought a strange vegetable on the market. The form does not inspire confidence, and when cleaned it was a little disappointing: it turned out slimy and with small round seeds inside. We Boma fried potatoes... like a potato with masatami... still can't forget the taste. Now think why I have prepared today is different, just wanted to show the Afghan national dish Boma. Fans of vegetables dedicated!

Cooking

step-0
This is for those of you not familiar with okra.
step-1
Okra (fresh) peel and cut the stalk and tail. I cut one, trying to show her sliminess, did not work, not visible in the photo!
step-2
Vegetables are also my clean. Onions, tomatoes and potatoes cut into cubes. Garlic and corset half-rings. Boma actually prepared and alone, without the potatoes and squash, eggplant. But I love the vegetables here and expanded the recipe.
step-3
Well heat oil and fry the onion and garlic.
step-4
Add the tomatoes and peppers, to herbs, Chile!
step-5
This is followed by the turmeric and salt.
step-6
Put the potatoes, it is cooked longer than other products.
step-7
Do not forget that every step we simmer for 2 minutes, moving to the subsequent ingredients! Corset added.
step-8
And the last step is to add the okra-Boma okra. I bought it two types, fresh and frozen dlinnenkie apparently different variety, little. To show that they are different, but are also. By the way, if not the season, it is said, it is better to buy frozen vegetables - they contain more vitamins!
step-9
Add half a Cup of water and simmer 15 minutes on low heat.
step-10
Our steamed veggies are ready! Boma served in Afghanistan to the white rice or pilaf, a very tasty wrap it in pita bread. You will surely enjoy, prepare health!!!
step-11
I forgot to warn you - Boma preferably virtually no jumble! Immediately add salt, stir in sauce and cook at least to shake the pan. Otherwise digested Boma will spread and the appearance will be gone, will look like in my picture, the taste certainly will not hurt!
