Okra/ Ladies finger Pepper fry

Inspired from here I tried this okra fry. Thanx lata for this wonderful fry. Woooow.. It came out very very crispy. I added pepper powder instead of red chilli powder. Also i have added curd and lemon juice to remove the stickiness that is present in ladies finger. Usually I add this while cooking in stove top too. Here comes my version of 100% microwave cooked okra pepper fry.
