12 BEST OKRA RECIPES - THE SPRUCE EATS
From thespruceeats.com
- Deep-Fried Okra. Fried okra is a classic for a good reason. A light cornmeal coating on the pods and a quick dunk in hot oil make fried okra crispy and completely delicious.
- Garlic Sautéed Okra. This garlic sautéed okra recipe is so simple and includes a useful tip for preparing okra: Pat dry after rinsing. For this dish, you only need a bit of oil, sliced garlic, and okra.
- Grilled Okra. The charred bits on grilled okra highlight the grass-like flavor of these beautiful green pods. It really is the easiest way to cook okra and it's almost as crowd-pleasing as the fried variety.
- Roasted Okra. Roasting is another method that guarantees crisp okra every time. Oven-roasted okra is simple and brings out that delicious nutty, slightly grassy flavor with an almost sweet edge.
- Okra With Tomatoes. This braised okra with tomatoes dish includes a flavorful blend of spices. Even though the okra is cooked in liquid, the acid in the tomatoes breaks up its gelatinous tendencies.
- Pickled Okra. For an unexpected treat, try pickling okra. This process allows you to enjoy the distinctive grassy flavor of okra well past the summer and fall harvest.
- Chilled Okra Salad. A favorite Japanese recipe, this chilled okra salad is a delicious option for hot days. Similar to freezing okra for storage, the recipe blanches it in boiling water, then shocks it in an ice bath to retain the bright green color.
- Curried Okra With Onions. Not only does this recipe create a tasty okra dish, but it also includes essential tips for cooking okra. The curried okra is stir-fried with onion and tomato and seasoned with cayenne, curry powder, and turmeric.
- Indian Crispy Okra. A slightly different approach to fried okra, kurkuri bhindi is a crispy Indian okra recipe. In this one, the okra is sliced thinly, dipped into a dry batter of gram flour, turmeric, chili powder, carom, and chaat masala, then deep-fried.
- Stewed Okra in Tomato Sauce. A Greek vegetarian dish, bamies latheres me domata is stewed okra in tomato sauce. It's cooked longer than most okra recipes, which would normally create slimy okra.
