On top of the onion slices, place half the tomato slices. 3. Drain the okra and arrange them carefully on top of the tomatoes. 4. Place the remaining tomato slices over the okra and add the salt, sugar, olive oil and the juice of the second lemon. Place a dish on top to weigh it down so that they acquire the slightly flattened traditional shape. 5.

Let cool in the pan, remove the plate and if possible, serve from that pan to keep the shape. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
