OKRA SALAD WITH TOASTED CUMIN
Even avowed okra-phobes love this salad, which is seasoned with a warm and earthy Moroccan spice blend. The okra cooks for only 2 minutes in salted water, and the resulting flavor and texture are somewhat reminiscent of asparagus. The salad tastes best at room temperature.

Steps:
- Make the dressing: Put cumin, coriander and caraway seeds in a small dry skillet over medium-high heat. Shake pan and toast seeds until fragrant and lightly browned, about 2 minutes.

Season with salt and pepper.

- To serve, place okra in a serving bowl. Season lightly with salt and toss with dressing. (Leave to marinate for up to 1 hour if desired.) Garnish with olives, chopped cilantro and some cilantro sprigs.

- While you are slicing the okra, heat the oil to 325°F. Fry 1/3 of the okra at a time, for about 3 minutes per batch. Set on paper towels when each batch is done and salt immediately. When you are done, remove the oil from the heat and set the okra aside.
- Add all the ingredients except the sesame seeds and mix well in a large bowl. Serve everyone some and top with the sesame seeds.
