Vegan Bamia Okra Stew with Chickpeas

[lemedstudent2021]

baba made bamia today :D

one of my favourite dishes and the food of all time. bamia btw is okra stew made with red tomato sauce and meat (lamb). also i was starving so it tasted more glorious lol.

anyway i randomly remembered stumbling across staggering quantities of bamia hate a few years back?? i was shook to say the least. behold a poll:

for statistical accuracy; if u love okra in general but as a dish other than the aformentioned stew pls choose the third option thank u :)

also! if this dish is also one in your cuisine please share! my 2 minute google research gave me answers only from MENA but afaik cultures all over the globe more often than not share dishes, albeit more local.

hopped onto reddit (as one does) and browsed a few threads. returned with a few gems lol:

the arabic reads: id rather eat shit with oil than eat bamia. ouch lol

mlochia is another somewhat controversial dish lol. aka jews mallow, and ewedu. its essentially green leaf soup. uncle iroh would love it

this one was too fucking funny not to include. the makhratta btw is a mezzaluna knife. in jordan its typically prepared as soup, but in my family we also eat it the lebanese way; leaf stew no blending.

Okra Stew Recipe (Simple Lebanese Bamia)

Okra stew, or bamia, is a traditional take on the classic Lubieh. In this stew, use okra in place of green beans, cooked in a warm spiced tomato broth. The stew is great with or without meat! When I told my cousin that I’d be sharing a recipe for bamia, or okra stew, here, she asked where I’d had this dish before. What?! I had it with our Sitto, I told her. Sitto made bamia as much as she made…
