If you like okra, try this. My mother use to make okra like but without the chile's. This Recipe comes from Gourmet Magazine. Ingredients:
2 (10 ounce) packages frozen cut okra |
1 tablespoon canola oil |
1 medium onion, coarsely chopped |
1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes |
1 fresh habanero pepper, pierced 3 times with a fork (if habanero is to hot use serrano or jalapeno chile instead) |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper |
Directions:
1. Rinse okra in a colander under hot water.
2. (Rinsing okra gives it a cleaner taste and texture.) Heat oil in a 10-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté onion, stirring until golden, about 3 minutes.
3. Add tomatoes (including juice) and chile and boil, stirring until tomatoes are softened and liquid is reduced by half, 5 to 10 minutes.
4. Add okra and cook, gently stirring, until okra is tender, about 5 minutes.
5. Stir in salt and pepper and discard chile.
