Instructions
- Spray tray with vegetable oil, spread the okra in one even layer on the tray & spray them with vegetable oil
- Place the tray in the oven at bake 450F, and every three minutes flip/stir the okra so that it doesn’t burn on one side
- Do this until the okra is a light brown color, approx. 10-15 minutes, set aside
- In a large pot, fry the onions in ¼ cup of olive oil, add the garlic in when the onions are a light golden color
- Add in the meat and ground cinnamon, cook until no longer red
- Add the 10 cups of water, the top of the pot will begin to foam after 5 minutes, and you have to remove the foam. Cover and let it boil on low heat for about 40 minutes.

- Boil in pot for 10 minutes
