One of my favorite vegetables is Okra, it is always available fresh in the Philippines and I have to boil them and make a sauce of kalamansi and bagoong (fish paste) to have a nice Okra salad. In native Filipino restaurants, boiled okra is alway in the menu. In Germany, I am not yet lucky enough to find fresh Okra, but I can buy them in cans (salted with some slices of tomatoes) in a nearby Iranian store. I just open the can and eat the okra with freshly cooked white rice.For my next vacation in the Philippines, I will definitely cook this dish as smoked fish crabs and shrimps are also abundant and can always be purchased in the local markets. I am excited to cook this food!.
