Wash the lady’s fingers thoroughly. Slice off the top and bottom of all four pieces then cut each one into small pieces.
In a saucepan, put the cut pieces of okra then pour 1 cup of water. Place over heat then let it boil for about 10 minutes. If it’s too sticky and needs more water, you can add some more. When you have a sticky mixture, turn off the heat and remove the saucepan from the stove. Let it cool completely.
Pour the mixture into an electric mixer or blender. Blend until you have a creamy mixture.
Place gauze or a piece of cloth on top of a bowl then filter the mixture.
In a small bowl, put a tablespoon of cornstarch then add 1/4 cup of water. Mix well until well combined. Add the cornstarch mixture into the pan of lady fingers mixture. Stir well until fully incorporated.
Place the saucepan over low heat. Let it boil while continuously stirring until you have a creamy mixture. Turn off the stove and let it cool down a little bit.
Filter it again to remove any lumps.
Add a tablespoon of almond oil and 1 tablespoon of coconut oil into the mixture. Stir until well combined.
