Directions

Quickly brown the lamb strips in the olive oil. Add the onion and garlic and cook until transparent. Add the spices, tomato, and lemon juice and salt and pepper. Simmer until the lamb is tender. Add the thawed okra, and cook 5 minutes. This dish is better if cooked few hours ahead and reheated.
