Equipment
- Baking tray and an oven
Ingredients
- 250 g okra or lady fingers
- ½ cup coconut flour (or chickpea flour - please take note that this has a higher net carb count)
- 1 tablespoon almond flour
- 1 teaspoon chilli powder
- ¼ teaspoon chaat masala spice
- ½ teaspoon cumin powder
- 50 ml olive oil extra virgin
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Wash and dry the okra, cut the crown and the tail (if you wish). I kept my tails. Slice the okra lengthwise in the middle, remove the seeds and set them aside. Slice them again so that you now have quarters.
- Transfer the okra to a bowl. To the bowl, add almond flour, coconut flour, salt, chilli powder, chaat masala, cumin powder and olive oil. Allow to sit and marinade for approximately 15 minutes.
- Transfer the okra to a baking sheet and spread them as much as possible to avoid overlapping. Bake in the oven for about 8 minutes, then turn them over for another 8 min until crunchy. The time will depend on your oven.
Notes
Serve it as a starter, a side dish or as a snack.
