Okra is plentiful in our CSA and this is our favorite way to eat it:
Ingredients:
1/2 cup chopped onion (1 medium onion)
1/2 cup chopped green sweet pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 TBSP olive oil
1/2 lb whole okra, cut into 1/2 inch thick pieces (2 cups)
2 large tomatoes, chopped, or 15oz can diced tomatoes
salt and pepper to taste
1 can black eyed peas, drained
1. In a large skillet cook and stir the onion, sweet pepper, and garlic in oil about 5 minutes or till tender.
2. Stir in okra, tomatoes, salt, pepper.
3. Bring to boiling. Add black-eyed peas, reduce heat and simmer, covered 20 to 30 minutes.
4. Serve as side dish or over rice for main dish.
