Okra Stew
- 2 cups raw mutton
- 2 tablespoons fat
- 1⁄8 cup flour
- 2 onions
- 2 cups tomatoes
- 2 cups okra
- 11⁄2 teaspoons salt
- 1⁄6 teaspoon pepper
- Water
Wipe the meat with a damp cloth, cut it into cubes. Wash and cut the okra in pieces, dredge it and the meat with the flour and fry them, till brown, in the fat. Put all the ingredients into a cooker-pail, add enough water to barely cover them, boil them for five minutes, and put them into a cooker for four hours, or more.
Serves six or eight persons.
