A serrated peeler works like magic to peel plum tomatoes, sparing you the hassle of blanching and shocking in ice water to get the skins off.
How to Make It
Step 1
Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add okra in a single layer; cook, without stirring, 3 minutes or until charred. Stir. Add onion and garlic; cook 2 minutes or until lightly charred. Add tomato, sugar, and pepper; cook 1 minute or until tomatoes start to break down.
Step 2
Remove pan from heat; stir in butter and remaining ingredients.
