Chillie powder : 1/2 teaspoon (adjust to taste)
Salt : to taste
Oil : 2 tablespoons (or more if needed)

Procedure

Add remaining oil in the pan add garlic, curry leaves, okra, salt, turmeric powder, leave the pan uncovered cook on a low flame until okra is almost done, then add the fried onions, chillie powder.
