It didn't crisp up like the green okra did. I don't know if it was me or the okra, but I think I prefer the good ol' green variety. Maybe I did something else that changed the crispness, I'm not sure. I definitely prefer the texture and taste of the paneer over the tofu. I also used Greek yogurt this time, but I prefer the dish with the basic whole milk Brown Cow brand yogurt I used the first time around. I found the red okra at the SF Ferry Plaza farmers market.

I tried growing it in my garden a couple summers ago, but it got bug infested pretty early on and I had to pull it out before it produced any okra pods. so disappointing Let me know if you think it's better with tofu or paneer -- I am quite curious denise — red okra! where did you find that?

This time I'm trying it your original way, with tofu, and I have red okra. Okay…I’m going in the kitchen to make this again.

We decided to cook the tofu in the bbq instead of the broiler and it came out wonderful. The smoky flavor went really well. Great recipe Jen!
