Why not okra? That is the question. They gotta do something with that vegetable. Might as well wrap it in bacon. :hehe:

haha...i see your point.

So many ppl have told me that the only way okra tastes good is in Jambalaya. Since I never visited New Orleans to enjoy their delicious cuisine I just have to take their word on it.

i usually eat okra sauteed with onions and garlic braised in tomato sauce

Enna wrote:Say Wynter how are you planning on cooking that okra you are buying?

I'm gonna try the bacon wrap, grilled, like in the pic Toshi-kun just showed. He showed it earlier and it got me hooked.

Usually, however, I cook it South Asian style. It's nearly exactly the way Toshi-kun prepares it:

i usually eat okra sauteed with onions and garlic braised in tomato sauce

I usually start off with sauteed onions, garlic, and ginger. It's really important to add sugar AFTER you have added the okra, otherwise you release too much of the "sliminess", which results in a slimy dish. To avoid the slime, add the salt a good few minutes after the okra has been added to the pan.

I add a lot more spices, as well... like pepper, red pepper, garlic powder, turmeric, and yummy chili pepper. Sometimes I'll add a lemon combo, or a masla combo, but that depends on taste.

At the very end, a few minutes before I'm ready to take the dish off the heat, I add in slices of fresh tomato.

The dish is quick and easy and totally yum-num. The hardest part is washing the okra and squeezing each piece between paper towel. This takes away the moistures and lowers the slime as well.

My okra pieces are smaller, for bit-size purposes, and I usually eat with naan.
