💡 專業提示
- ✓If using frozen okra, you may not need to add as much liquid, as it can release water.
- ✓For a thicker stew, you can mash some of the cooked okra against the side of the pot.
- ✓If you don't have Scotch bonnet peppers, a small amount of habanero or even a pinch of red pepper flakes can be used, but be mindful of the heat.
