To cut the okra into rounds, slice each pod into ½-inch thick coins. To cut the okra into spears, slice each pod lengthwise. Note that the more okra is cut, the more it will release its mucilage.

In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise with the miso. Put the sesame seeds and chiles in 2 small bowls. To eat, dip the okra spears in the miso mayonnaise, then dip in the toppings.
