BOILED OKRA - BIGOVEN



Boiled Okra - BigOven image

"This is my absolute favorite vegetable. It reminds me of growing up on the farm. I can remember working for Daddy in the summertime. Before we would leave for the cotton fields, Mother would have us go to the garden and cut okra. Even at 6:30 in the morning it was 90 degrees and humid. And the okra plants would irritate your skin while you were cutting the pods. I would itch all day until I took a shower before supper. Then, the tender green okra pods were in a bowl, smothered in butter and black pepper, waiting for me to devour! "

Total Time 20 minutes

Prep Time 5 minutes

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 pound Fresh Okra washed and with the ends cut off
Water
Salt and pepper
Butter

Steps:

  • "In a medium pot, add the okra, about an inch of water, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, cover and cook for about 12 minutes. Remove from heat, drain off water. Add black pepper and tons of butter. Do not stir as this will break up the okra."

BOILED OKRA RECIPE - SIMPLE CHINESE FOOD

Okra is rich in pectin, dietary fiber and vitamins, and is called "green ginseng" by nutritionists.

ROASTED OKRA RECIPE | ALLRECIPES
This recipe is the best okra recipe I have ever used. I don't believe I'll ever cook okra any other way. In addition to the okra, I included sliced fresh mushrooms and sliced white onions and used habanero infused olive oil. The amount of salt called for in the recipe is way too much for the amount of okra listed, but that is a personal preference.
