Stir-fried Okra and Green Pepper with Shrimp
Okra is a relatively recent addition to our family table. Because of its mucilaginous texture, I usually use it in soups. Today I stir-fried it with shrimp, and the flavor was also excellent — a fitting dish for a National Day or Mid-Autumn family gathering.
