Yummy Okra Mashed Potatoes
[Okra Mashed Potatoes]: Okra, Potatoes
Okra is a green ingredient high in protein and low in calories, rich in dietary fibre, which is good for enhancing satiety and has a beneficial effect on weight control.
- First peel and slice the potatoes and steam them in a pan. Usually 10 minutes is enough to steam the potatoes softly.
Wash the okra and blanch it. You can drizzle a little oil and salt into the water when blanching the greens in general, so that the okra comes out bright green and does not change colour.
Cook in water for 2 minutes, then pass through cool water to avoid a crisp texture.
Once the okra has cooled, remove the hard ends and cut into rings.
Prepare a small bowl and brush it with vegetable oil for easy release.
- When the potatoes are steamed, add some salt to them and press them with a spoon to form a potato puree, then scoop them into the small bowl with the okra and flatten them with a spoon.

Cover with a plate and invert the mashed potatoes and okra onto the plate.
- Stir fry a little sauce, chop some minced garlic and diced carrots to match the colour.
Stir fry the minced garlic, add some water along the side of the pan, add the diced carrots and start seasoning: put in some oyster sauce and soy sauce and stir to melt the seasoning
After the soup has boiled, thicken the soup with a little water starch and pour it over the okra.
The combination of okra and potatoes is perfect, crisp, soft and delicious, with less oil and salt and still filling.
