Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Okra

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash the okra and trim the ends. Cut them in half lengthwise.

  2. 2

    Season the Okra

    In a large bowl, toss the okra with coconut oil, salt, pepper, and curry powder until evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Roast the Okra

    Spread the okra in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until tender and lightly browned, stirring halfway through.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Tahini Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix tahini, lemon juice, and a splash of water until smooth. Adjust the consistency with more water if necessary.

  5. 5

    Combine and Serve

    Once the okra is roasted, remove it from the oven and drizzle with the tahini sauce. Top with chopped cilantro and puffed rice for crunch.
