I do believe this simple recipe will change your concept of okra; if you don’t love it already, you soon will! Just make sure to pick the small okra for this recipe. It will get crunchier as you cook it.
Ingredients
1poundyoung okra(less than 3 inches)
¼cupolive oil
1½tablespoonscumin
1½teaspoonsalt
1teaspoonblack pepper
½teaspoonchipotle chili pepper
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Toss okra in olive oil to coat. Combine all dry spices and toss with okra.
Bake for 5-7 minutes and turn okra over onto the other side. Bake for another 3-5 minutes or until pods are softened. For a crunchy outside, let it go a little longer. You may think it has been in the oven a very long time, but it will be worth it.
