Thank you so much for the recipe. I had a few bags of frozen okra in the freezer but was hesitant to cook it. This is such a simple and easy recipe. I don't have mango powder can I use lemon juice instead?
abby, since we are using all dry ingredients for mucillage to be absorbed completely, the use of lemon juice will not be preferred.You may make okra without using mango powder also. Sprinkle few lemon juice drops once the dish is ready.
