Skillet Okra And Lamb

Ingredients:
1 Tbsp olive oil
2 onions, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ lb (250 g) ground lamb

1 cup water
¼ cup tomato paste
¾ tsp salt
⅛ tsp ground black pepper
1 lb (500 g) okra, trimmed
2 Tbsp fresh-squeezed lemon juice
1 Tbsp finely chopped cilantro (optional)

Directions:
1. In large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onions and sauté for 5 minutes, or until
softened. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Add lamb and cook, breaking up meat with wooden
spoon, for 5 minutes, or until browned. Drain off any fat.
2. Stir in tomato, water, tomato paste, salt, and pepper. Top with okra and sprinkle with lemon juice.
Cover and cook for 15 minutes, or until okra is tender. Uncover and simmer for 5 minutes to reduce
