Okra Japanese-style

Description
I have seen the huge differences of opinion over okra on 'Zaar, so I just had to try this (my first ever okra) when it was offered to me in Japan. I'm now an okra convert, but maybe it was the simple and delicious way it was served to me!



Ingredients
1 lb okra

Dipping Sauce
1 inch ginger   2 tablespoons soy sauce

Directions
Bring a saucepan of water to the boil.  Drop in the okra and boil for 2-3 minutes.  Rinse under cold water, then drain again.  Serve with the dipping sauce.  Dipping Sauce: Grate the ginger into the soy sauce just as you are serving the okra.
