Notes

  1. It's very important to let the okra turn completely dry before cutting otherwise it may turn slimy.
  2. Slit should be made without cutting the pieces completely apart so that the stuffing stay inside during cooking.
  3. Do no over fry otherwise okra will turn crispy. But if like the crispy texture, go ahead.
