Time 15m

Yield Serves 1 as a main course

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 pound fresh, unblemished small okra
2 tablespoons olive oil
Red-pepper flakes
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Trim the stems off the ends of the okra, taking care not to cut into the interior of the pods.
  • Pour the oil into a large skillet over medium-high heat and allow it to heat until almost smoking. Add the okra and red-pepper flakes to taste. Sauté until the pods have softened slightly, but are still crisp and brightly colored, 6 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
