Okra and Tomato Stir fry

My sister made this for me to accompany a roast chicken & I'd eaten most of it before I remembered to take a photo! 

Okra is high in vitamin C, magnesium and is 10% of your RDA for manganese (some B6 and lots of vitamin K), so combined with the garlic and tomatoes this makes the blog. 



Serves 2

Ingredients
300 g x okra
2 tbsp x olive oil
4 x garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/2 lemon, juice
200 g x cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 tbsp x chopped coriander
2 tbsp x water
Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions
1. Over a high heat DRY fry the okra until it begins to blister (almost popping seeds).

2. Reduce heat to medium and add olive oil & garlic for 2 minutes. 

3. Add tomatoes, lemon juice & coriander for a further 2-3 minutes, so tomatoes warm through. Season to taste.
