I love Okra :D
This is how I eat it since I like to add more substance to mine.

Mexican Style Okra

Brown 1 lb of lean ground meat
Add garlic cloves (2)
1/4 tsp comino( if availble)
salt and pepper to taste

When meat is 1/2 way cooked add1/2 onion or more up tp your taste
1 fresh tomatoe. Cook until translucent.

Prior wash and cut okra into small bite size pieces.
Once onion and tomatoe is ready add okra stir getnly
Add 1 can of tomatoe sauce and 1 can of water and let simmer (med heat) until okra is soft. ( around 20 minutes)

Do not over stir are it can get ucky!!!!

Yummy!!!

I just had this last night and always enjoy this meal. It is kind of soupy so you can have cornbread or crackers or whatever you like with it. I like corn tortillas w/ mine.
