The edible portion is the seed pod also called the fruit. It's a fruit because you are primarily eating the fleshy plant that encloses and protects the seed. Yes tomatoes are technically fruit.

This unusual vegetable does not only offer a superb taste, but also is nutritious and medicinal. It is a good source of Vitamin C, Folic Acid, essential B vitamins as well as magnesium, manganese and potassium. Okra is also high in dietary fibre.

The bit we eat is the seed-bearing fruit of Abelmoschus esculentus, also known as Hibiscus esculentus.
