Description
Make perfectly sauteed okra that's not slimy or sticky. Made with onions, ginger, garlic, and a splash of lemon. This dish gets done in just 15 minutes.
Ingredients
- 1 lb (500 g) Okra
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 med Onions sliced
- 2 med Garlic cloves sliced
- 2 inches Ginger fresh sliced,
- 1 tsp Chily flakes spicy (optional)
- 1 tbsp Lemon juice
- ½ tsp Salt
- ½ tsp Pepper
Instructions
- Clean and discard any bad okra. Then wash, cut the tips off, and wipe dry the okra.
- Add the oil to a frying pan or cast-iron skillet. Sauté the ginger and garlic for 30 seconds. Then, add the sliced onions. Sauté until the onions are translucent.
- Next, add the okra. Cook on medium to high heat, stirring constantly for 2 minutes (medium to high heat will prevent the okra from becoming sticky).
- Season with salt and pepper. Add 1/4 cup water and continue to cook, stirring often. Cook until the okra is fork-tender, adding another few tablespoons of water as necessary. Finally, add the chili flakes and lemon juice.
- Taste and adjust seasoning.
