MASALA-SPICED RIB-EYE STEAKS WITH TOMATO-OKRA RELISH RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• Toast cumin, coriander, and peppercorns in a small skillet over medium-high heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate to cool. Grind in a spice grinder or with a mortar and pestle, transfer to a bowl, and stir in cinnamon and salt. Season each steak with 2 tablespoons spice mixture; let stand 30 minutes. Meanwhile, toss okra, tomatoes, and chile with oil and 1 teaspoon spice mixture. Preheat grill to medium-high heat and lightly brush hot grill with oil. Grill steaks until charred in places on bottom, 8 to 10 minutes. Turn steaks and add okra, tomatoes, and chile. Grill until vegetables are charred in places and tender, and a thermometer inserted into thickest part of steaks (do not touch bone) reaches 125 degrees for medium-rare. Transfer steaks and vegetables to a cutting board. While steaks rest, at least 15 minutes and up to 30 minutes, grill corn. Meanwhile, coarsely chop okra, tomatoes, and chile and transfer to a bowl. Toss relish with mint and season with salt. Thinly slice steaks across the grain and serve with relish.

BHINDI MASALA (OKRA WITH RED ONION AND TOMATO)

Steps:

• In a medium (9-inch) frying pan or wok, heat 2 tablespoons ghee over medium-high for 30 to 45 seconds or until it has melted. Add okra and cook undisturbed for 5 minutes or until okra starts to brown around the edges. (Cooking okra undisturbed helps eliminate the gooeyness.) Stir once so the sides with less color can brown next, then cook for another 5 minutes or until all the okra is brown around the edges. (This may take slightly longer if using frozen okra.) Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon ghee to the same frying pan and heat over medium-high until it melts. Add ginger and garlic and stir for about 30 seconds, until the raw smell dissipates. Add onion and cook, stirring frequently, until onions begin to soften, about 3 to 5 minutes. (The onions should still have a little bite.)
• Lower the heat to medium and add red chile, coriander and turmeric, and stir until the masalas are uniformly mixed with the onion, about 30 seconds. Add tomato and salt. Continue cooking on medium until tomatoes break down, about 5 minutes.
• Add okra back to the pan and mix until incorporated. Sprinkle with lime juice and garam masala. Serve with roti, store-bought pita or by itself.
