There are two main ways to cut okra slime. One is to fry it,
plain or floured with corn meal into which you've mixed a little curry
powder. The other is to cook it with something acid. She fries it *and*
cooks it with both tomatoes *and* vinegar.

It wouldn't surprise me if her source had been adapted from an
earlier source originally meant for okra.

It's bound to be as good as the pix look, with either -- or,
maybe, some mixture of okra and green (or purple!) beans. Note that okra
normally wants considerably more cooking than beans ....
