Wash and prepare the ladies fingers and keep aside. Wash and cut meat into even sized pieces. Peel and slice onions and add to the meat. Grind ginger and garlic. Add to meat with turmeric, salt, garam masala and oil. Add a little water and keep pan on fire. Cook gently. When water dries up, add chopped tomatoes. Stir constantly till tomatoes are well cooked. Add ladies fingers. Brown for a little longer. Add enough water to cover the meat and vegetables and cook gently until tender. Add lime juice or tamarind and allow to boil well. Remove from fire and add finely chopped mint leaves. Serve hot.

N. B.      This dish can be prepared in the same way by adding beetroot or red pumpkin or capsicum or white pumpkin instead of the ladies fingers. Chicken can be used instead of mutton.
