Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb okra (cut in half lengthwise)
1 teaspoon olive oil
½ teaspoon sea salt
Zest and juice from 1 orange
1 ½ tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
1 small garlic clove (very finely minced)
Orange slices and fresh ground pepper (to serve)

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 450 degrees. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  • Toss the okra with the olive oil and sea salt and spread them out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Roast the okra for 25 minutes.
  • While the okra is roasting, prepare the glaze. In a small frying pan over high heat, add the orange zest, orange juice, balsamic vinegar, honey, and garlic. Bring it to a boil and let it boil rapidly, whisking occasionally until it has reduced by half, about 5 minutes. If it reduces a little too much, just add another splash of orange juice or water.
  • Once the okra is nicely browned remove it from the oven and toss it with the orange glaze. Serve the okra with orange slices and a little fresh ground pepper.

OKRA ORANGE SURPRISE



Okra Orange Surprise image

I created this stir-fry recipe because I love okra and was tired of making the same old recipes. I used baby whole okra, but cut okra would work, too. I am on a very low sodium diet, so use a special salt-less Shoyu, which may be hard to find. Other soy sauce can be substituted, but will greatly increase the amount of sodium. I freeze extra zest whenever I have lemons, and save it to use in recipes like this.

Time 17m

Yield 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons vegetable oil (I use olive)
1 (16 ounce) package frozen okra
1 teaspoon prepared grated fresh ginger (bottled)
2 tablespoons japanese sodium-free shoyu (or soy sauce, if you're not on a low sodium diet)
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1/2 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons honey

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a frying pan and add the frozen okra. Reduce heat to medium, cover and cook until the okra is thawed. (The thawing okra will add about half a cup of liquid to the pan. If it doesn't, then add some water, if needed.).
  • Add ginger, lemon zest and Shoyu, stir and cook uncovered until almost dry.
  • Add orange juice and honey. Stir frequently, turning okra to coat it well. Cook until sauce is reduced and has become sticky. Remove from heat and serve.
