Rule 1…
Chez doesn’t do okra.
Okra is slimy, nasty and has no redeeming qualities.
Well, another bastion of flavor prejudice collapsed today at Chez Geoffrey’s.
Here is an okra recipe the even ultra okra haters will like.
Ingredients
- 1 lb fresh okra (the smaller the pods the better)
- Spray Olive Oil
- Kosher Salt
- Fresh Ground Pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450
- Lightly spray a cookie sheet with the spray olive oil
- Scatter okra on the sheet
- Lightly spray okra with the spray olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Bake for 20 minutes, turning the okra every 5 minutes.
- Serve immediately with Kalamata olives.
That's it... no other steps, no other elements. This is simplicity itself.
Enjoy.
- Chez
