Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
Add the onions and sauté until golden brown.
Add the ginger and garlic pastes, and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
Add turmeric powder, cumin powder, coriander powder, and red chili powder. Stir well for about 1 minute.
Add the meat cubes to the pan and sauté them until they are browned on all sides.
Pour in the tomato puree, salt, and half the water. Stir well and bring to a simmer.
Cover and let it cook on low heat for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the meat is tender.
Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a separate pan over medium heat.
Add the sliced okra and sauté until it becomes tender and lightly brown. This should take about 8-10 minutes.
Once the meat is tender, add the cooked okra to the meat mixture.
Sprinkle garam masala over the mixture and stir gently to combine, allowing the flavors to meld for about 5 minutes.
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and serve hot.
