When we grew okra this was our favorite way of cooking it. Add corn and peppers, if you've got them, too. This is great as a side dish to fried catfish, so so Southern you'll also need some sweet tea! Ingredients:
4 dozen okra, trimmed and cut in half |
3 -4 tablespoons butter |
1 large onion, chopped |
2 garlic cloves, chopped |
3 cups tomatoes, chopped |
salt and pepper |
hot pepper sauce or cayenne pepper |
Directions:
1. In a skillet, melt butter and saute onion and garlic until soft, about 5 minutes.
2. Add tomatoes, okra and spices.
3. Cook on medium-low, stirring occasionally, until tender, approximately 20 minutes.
4. Taste and season with either cayenne or hot sauce.
