PAN-SEARED OKRA WITH BACON
Okra is a staple in Gullah cooking, and let me tell you, give me a cast-iron skillet and I'm a happy girl. It's the perfect pan for giving that okra its crispy, roasted exterior. Paired with bacon...shoot, it's downright delicious. My secret for un-slimy okra? A squeeze of lemon juice.

- Squeeze the juice from the lemon over the top of the okra. Crumble the bacon over the top and sprinkle with freshly ground pepper. Serve right from the skillet.

SIMPLE FRIED OKRA
With only a few ingredients and about 10 minutes, you can enjoy light, crispy okra anytime. I prefer okra with a light flour coating versus corn meal. I want to taste the okra -- not the breading! Fried okra, a country staple, is best served hot alongside thick-sliced summer tomatoes.
