Gnaouia - Tunisian Okra and Beef Stew
Gnaouia (also spelled gnaouiya, ganaouia or gnawia) is a Tunisian Jewish specialty that never goes out of style. The star ingredient of this delicious dish is okra, cooked with beef or chicken. A must at holiday meals and especially on Shabbat, okra may be little known in European cooking, but it is a staple across Africa and the Middle East.
