Ladies Fingers & Potato Stir-Fry

"Ladies Fingers, a.k.a okra, bhindi, bamia, ochro or gumbo, is a flowering plant in the mallow family. It is valued for its edible green seed pods. 

The geographical origin of okra is disputed, with supporters of West Africa, Ethiopia, and South Asian origins.  

The plant is cultivated in tropical, subtropical and warm temperate regions around the world."
