Wash okras and cut off stems.
Finely slice the onion and chop the parsley leaves. Remove stems from the red
chillies and slice into halves lengthwise. Optional: Cut off the fat from a
bacon rasher and finely slice the lean part into thin strips.
In a heavy based saucepan, heat
up 2-3 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium heat. Optional: Stir fry
the thin bacon strips. Put in the crushed garlic, crushed ginger, sliced
onion and the sliced red chillies. Stir fry until the sliced onion is cooked
and become transparent.
Add the okras and gently mix
with the other ingredients. Reduce heat to medium-low. Allow to stew and
gently stir at intervals until the okras are cooked and tender. Be careful not
to squash the okras. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
