  1. Yum! Love Indian food! My husband, who is Indian, prefers this meal without the tomatoes. Very okra-y then! Mmmm. I make roti (and indian bread) sometimes, but tortillas work well too if you want to eat it with a bread!

    1. I’d love it if you’d share your Indian bread (I assume you mean naan) technique. I’ve always wanted to try making it, but haven’t attempted it yet. I like the no tomatoes version, too. It’s great for the okra lovers. 🙂
