- 3. Trim okra and cut each piece into 4 to 5 slices. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet. Add in onion, garlic and okra. Cook till tender, 8 min. Add in liquid removed collards, coriander, cayenne, salt to taste and reserved cooking liquid, if you like.

- Note: Palm oil is called for in the original recipe. It is a mild though distinctly flavored, reddish-orange oil extracted from palm kernels. Used extensively in African cooking, it is very high in saturated fat; thus it has fallen out of favor with some cooks. It can be found in some African and East Indian markets.
