- âTo reduce sliminess from okra, you can lightly sauté it separately before adding to the curry, or rinse it under cold water after cutting.
- âUse a firm white fish that holds its shape well during cooking.
- âAdjust the amount of chili powder to your preferred level of heat.
- âFor a thicker curry, you can simmer it uncovered for a few extra minutes at the end.
