Melt the margarine in a large skillet. Add the okra. Saute
until the okra loses its shiny appearance, about 5 mins.
Remove the okra pieces to a bowl. Add the celery onion,
green pepper, and garlic to the skillet.
Cook over medium heat until the onion is transparent. Add
the tomato paste, tomatoes, water, okra mixture, and
turkey. Cook over low heat 10 minutes or until turkey is
hot. Add the file powder. Stir to blend. Spoon over the
rice in soup bowls.
