Mix all the ingredients, except for the okra and coconut oil, to create a smooth batter. Add salt to taste.
Rinse the okra and cut into quarters lengthways (one okra pod should give you 4 pieces).
Dip the okra into the batter, ensuring that it’s well coated with the batter.
Heat coconut oil in a pan and fry the okra, making sure not to crowd the pan, until crispy and golden.
Drain on kitchen paper and serve immediately with spicy coriander chutney.
