  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Wash the okra and slice them into pieces. Dice the lamb into bite-sized pieces. Chop the onion and tomatoes, and mince the garlic.

    Brown the Lamb

    In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the diced lamb and brown it on all sides.

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Once the lamb is browned, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent.

    Add Broth and Okra

    Pour in the chicken or beef broth and bring to a simmer. Add the sliced okra and stir gently.

  6. 6

    Simmer the Dish

    Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the lamb is tender and the okra is cooked through.
