ROASTED OKRA
As a good Southern gardener, I find myself bringing in okra by the armload nearly every other day. Stewed okra is great, but for a little variety, we like to roast ours from time to time. This is so simple and easy and the okra tends to not be nearly as gummy or slimy when roasted. Chopped tomato makes a great addition when we have some handy.

BEA'S GRILLED OR OVEN BROILED OKRA
I have tried grilled okra before and it was quite good but I came up with a version that I like even better. I hope you try this. 7/7/14

Steps:
- 1. Wash okra then pat dry.
- 2. Place in bowl and drizzle on some olive oil. Sprinkle on some McCormick's Perfect Pinch Garlic & Herb seasoning. You can also use Mrs. dash if you like.
- 3. Dig in with your hands and cover all okra with the oil and seasoning.
- 4. GRILL METHOD: Place individual okra directly onto grill grate and cook on low temp (about 350) for approximately 15 minutes or until desired doneness, turning occasionally. We like ours a little charred. NOTE: My son prefers to slice the okra then puts it in a ziplock bag with the oil and seasonings and then uses a grill basket to grill them.
- 5. OVEN METHOD: I also thinly slice the okra, place it in a bowl, sprinkle on the seasonings and drizzle on the olive oil. Then transfer onto a foil-lined cookie sheet or baking pan and broil until the doneness you like. I love the pieces that are a bit charred like you see in the photo.
