It's best to blanch okra before stir-frying meat with it. Although okra can be eaten raw, the flavor of this food is somewhat astringent. If okra is dipped in water and eaten, the flavor will be greatly reduced. So it's best to dip the meat in water before stir-frying it, which will make the taste of okra better.

Blanching with okra is easy. Simply boil a pot of water and add a good amount of salt to the pot. Once it comes to a boil, add the okra. Because okra is light and floats on the water, make sure to keep stirring it after you add it to the pot so that the okra is heated evenly.

In general, blanching okra usually takes three to five minutes, blanching until the color of the okra darkens can be removed from the pot. If you blanch for a long time, it may make the okra very soft and affect the taste.

After the okra is removed from the pot, it will be immediately immersed in cold water to cool down, and it is better if it is immersed in ice water to cool down. This is the key to keeping the okra crispy and refreshing.

When the okra is completely cooled, it can be fished out and dried, and cut into strips or chunks according to the requirements of the dish, so that it can be used to make a variety of dishes.

The okra can be used not only for cold, but also for stir-frying various kinds of meat. As long as the ingredients are incompatible, they can be cooked together.
