A hearty yahni (stew) recipe made by slow-cooking cubed beef with fresh okra and tomatoes over low heat. This dish, made rich by the meat and given a slight thickness by the okra's texture, is a beloved dinner favorite alongside rice.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Sear the meat

10 min

Heat the olive oil in a wide pot, add the diced meat, and sauté over medium heat until it releases its liquid and reabsorbs it.

2

Cook with onion

10 min

Add the onion and sauté until it turns pink, then add the grated tomato and cook for a few minutes.

3

Let the meat soften

20 min

Add a little water, cover with a lid, and cook over low heat until the meat is tender.

4

Add the okra

15 min

Add the okra rubbed with lemon juice, season with salt and black pepper, and continue cooking over low heat until the okra is tender without falling apart.

Reminder

Important: Lightly cutting the tip of the okra and rubbing it with lemon juice reduces its slimy texture. Caution: Adding the okra late prevents it from falling apart too much — don't boil it at the same time as the meat.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

When you can't find fresh okra, you can use frozen okra; in that case, the cooking time is a bit shorter.

İlk denememde biraz tedirgindim ama sonuç harika oldu. Çocuklar sebzeli olduğunu fark etmeden yediler, bu da ayrı bir başarı. Pişirirken evin her tarafı kokladı, komşular bile sordu.

Ocaktan erken aldım, içi tam pişmemiş. Fırın sıcaklığını yanlış ayarlamışım, alt kısmı fazla kızardı.
