Curried Okra

1# okra, cut into 1/4# thick slices
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup golden raisins
1 jalapeno, minced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp. cumin powder
1 tsp. turmeric
1/2 tsp. ground cardamom
1/2 tsp. ground ginger
1/8 tsp. dried mustard
1/8 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. honey
1/2 tsp. salt
1 Tbs. water

Heat 3 Tbs. oil in a cooking pan over medium heat. When hot add in the okra, onion, raisins, jalapeno, and garlic, and stir for 1 minute. Meanwhile, combine the last 9 ingredients together to form a paste. Spread this evenly over the okra mixture. Stir well, and fry to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Turn the heat down to medium-low, and continue frying for another 5 minutes more, or until the okra is crisp. Serve alone or over rice.
