Spicy Lady's Fingers

I've bought some lady's fingers, not quite knowing what to do with them (don't we all do that sometimes?!). I remembered taking a liking to an Indian dish with Lady's finger being the main ingredidient. In fact, I'll never fail to include that in my list of dish each time I buy Indian Rice. Browse through the net and found a recipe which I akin to the dish that I favour.



1 tablespoon Tamarind Paste
1/4 cup of water
-----combine tamarind paste with water---------

For the grinded Ingredients :-

4 red chillies
4 shallots
2cm shrimp paste (belacan)
2 cloves of garlic
1 tablespoon tomato puree (I use tomato sauce!!)
Salt to taste (I omit it)

---------------------------------------------------------

And of course u need just a handful of Lady's fingers (Sliced slantly) and oil to cook!

Heat the oil. put in blended ingredients until fragrant. Add Tamarind paste (blended with water). when it thickens, add the lady's fingers! Fuss-free! :D
