Steps:
- In a saute pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring, until soft and translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 45 to 60 seconds. Add the wine and cook until reduced by half, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the okra, red pepper flakes, tomatoes, thyme and bay leaves. Season with salt and pepper. Cover, decrease the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the okra is just tender, about 15 minutes. Taste and adjust for seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
CUMIN-SPICED OKRA AND TOMATOES
Okra and tomatoes are a classic combo. This is a delicious, spicy variation that's really easy to make. I made this often in college and turned my okra-skeptical roommate into a fan. I like this served over brown rice, but it's also great thinned out into a stew.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a dutch oven over medium heat.
- Saute onion for a few minutes until it begins to soften.
- Add garlic, jalapeno, and cumin and cook 1-2 minutes longer. Don't brown the garlic or it will get bitter.
- Add okra, tomatoes, and tomato juice. Salt and pepper to taste.
- You can add water to make a soupier dish, or leave it fairly dry. I add 1/4-1/2 cup.
- Cover and cook 5-10 minutes. Okra should soften and the juices will become quite thick.
