YAKHNIT BAAMIEH - 2

Another okra stew!



INGREDIENTS:


3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil 
1 pound very lean veal shank meat, cut into 1/2-inch cubes 
Salt and freshly ground pepper 
2 medium onions, halved and thinly sliced 
4 garlic cloves, 2 chopped and 2 minced 
1 cup drained canned tomatoes, chopped 
1 1/2 pounds okra, sliced on the diagonal 1 inch thick 
3/4 cup finely chopped cilantro 
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
1. Heat the oil in a large enameled cast-iron casserole. Season the veal
 with salt and pepper and add half of the meat to the casserole. Cook over
 moderately high heat until nicely browned all over; transfer to a plate and
 repeat with the remaining meat. 

2. Add the onions and the chopped garlic to the casserole, reduce the
 heat to low and cook until the onions are softened, about 8 minutes.
 Return the meat to the casserole and add the tomatoes and 1 1/2 cups of
 water. Cover partially and simmer until the veal is tender, about 25
 minutes. 

3. Stir in the okra and enough water to just cover the meat. Cover and
 simmer for 20 minutes, then uncover and cook until the liquid reduces
 slightly, about 10 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and the cilantro and
 simmer for 2 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice and season with salt and
 pepper. Remove from the heat and let stand for 10 minutes before
 serving.  Serves 6
