Lebanese style okra with tomato sauce

#ChooseToCook- I used to hate okra as a kid but I still had to eat it when mum makes it while it’s in season. It was NEVER an option for us to not eat what she cooks even if we don’t like it 😂 Season and fridge ingredients were always the first and only decider at home for mum when it comes to what to cook.
