Preparation time: 3-6 minutes
Cooking time: 12-15 minutes
Serves: 4
Tips:
Salt should be added at a later stage of cooking(step 3) to make the okra crisp.
When the microwave cooking time for a step exceeds 2 minutes, it is highly recommended the contents be checked and stirred at regular intervals to avoid burning of food. Standing time is a very important step as it completes the microwave cooking process of a dish. Ideally, allow the dish to stand for about 5 minutes before serving.
