Directions:
- Top the chili pepper and score it down the middle. We use red Thai chilis.
- Peel and smash the clove of garlic, leaving it mostly intact. Set aside with the chili pepper.
- Wash and thoroughly dry the okra. Cut off and discard ends. Slice into 1/8 slices on the diagonal.
- Heat a non-stick frying pan/skillet over medium heat. When hot, add 1 tbsp of the oil, the chili pepper, and the garlic. Stir-fry for one minute, then discard the chili pepper and garlic.
- Add the sliced okra to the pan, stirring frequently. Stir-fry for five minutes.
- Add the remaining 1 tbsp oil and sprinkle with sea salt and a couple of grinds of black pepper, to taste. Continue to stir-fry the okra for another 5-10 minutes, depending on how soft or crunchy you want your okra- the longer you fry it, the softer it will get. I prefer mine softer. Your okra should be browned somewhat to get the authentic Southern flavor of fried okra.
- Remove to a warm plate and serve immediately.
