Steps:
- Prep the okra - Wash and dry the okra. Slice the tips and end off of the okra and discard. Cut the okra into 3/4" thick round slices.
- Mince the garlic.
- Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
- Add olive oil, cut okra, and salt to the hot pan.
- Spread the okra out in the pan and allow it to cook. Stir occasionally until the okra is lightly caramelized. (This should be about 5 minutes).
- Add minced garlic to the pan and cook for another minute or until the garlic starts to soften.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
GARLIC SAUTéED OKRA
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Trim off and discard the stem ends of the okra pods. Rinse the trimmed pods, carefully pat them dry, and set them aside. Extra water in the cooking process can lead to the slick factor this okra recipe is designed to avoid, so the dryer the better.
- Peel the garlic clove, cut it in half lengthwise, and slice it crosswise as thinly as possible.
- Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, add the oil, swirl the pan to coat the bottom with the oil, and heat until the oil shimmers, about 30 seconds. Add the garlic and let it sizzle until it just starts to turn golden, about 1 minute.
- Add the okra, stir to coat it with oil, and combine it with the garlic. Cover and cook, shaking the pan frequently to move the okra pods around inside until the okra is starting to brown on the edges and is tender to the bite, about 8 minutes.
- Transfer the okra to a serving platter or individual plates. Add the optional tomatoes if using and sprinkle with salt. Serve and enjoy.

OKRA AND ONION SAUTé
My boyfriend loves okra. I have never eaten it before, let alone how to cook it. But I saw some fresh okra in my store on sale this week and bought it. I searched for recipes, there were plenty for fried, stewed with tomatoes, and for gumbo. I had no clue. So I just asked him how he likes it. I used his basic method and added the onion and garlic on my own. Tastes pretty good!
