SMOTHERED OKRA BASE FOR OKRA GUMBO OR A SIMPLE SIDE DISH
This is the easiest way to smother okra. Using this method, the okra can be eaten as is or used as a base for Okra Gumbo. To prepare the gumbo, all that needs to be added to this full batch of cooked okra is about 3 to 4 pounds peeled and deveined shrimp, cooking stovetop for about 20 to 25 minutes after returning to a simmer. Should additional liquid need be added, do so towards the end of the 20 minutes by adding broth, water or shrimp stock to reach desired consistency. Serve gumbo over cooked rice.

STEWED (SMOTHERED) OKRA – OVEN OR STOVE TOP
From realcajunrecipes.com
5/5 (8)Category Main Dishes, Side Dishes, Soups & SaladsServings 4Published Sep 8, 2002
- Stove Top Method: Method 1 - Wash fresh okra. Remove stems and cut okra into 1/2 inch rounds. In a heavy saucepan or Magnalite cookware, cook the okra, onions, tomatoes in the oil over medium low heat stirring continually for about 45 minutes to 2 hours (depending on the amount you are cooking) until the okra is no longer slimy and has achieved a light greenish brown color.
- Stove Top Method: Method 2 - Some cooks will sauté the onions and bell pepper in one tablespoon of oil until wilted in a separate skillet all the while cooking the okra in a separate pot until the okra is a light greenish brown color .
- Check your seasonings and serve as a vegetable side dish, with rice and gravy or make the okra and shrimp gumbo. Cei cest bon!
- Oven Method: Method 3 - Preheat oven to 350 degrees. If you're using frozen okra, defrost in a microwave or at room temperature. Using frozen okra from your local supermarket allows you to "pick" okra anytime saving time and freezer space.
- In a large Magnalite pot or Dutch oven with a lid, add the oil. Add the cut okra, onion, bell pepper and tomatoes. On the stove top, heat until the pot is warm (although warming the pot is not necessary before placing in the oven, it does help speed the cooking process).
- Cover the pot and place in the preheated 350 degree oven. Set your timer for 1 hour. Take out and stir thoroughly. After the first hour, repeat this step at 1/2 hour intervals.
- What I like to do is cook this dish in the late evening say sevn o'clock; I cook it for two hours and then turn off my oven and leave it in the oven until the next morning.
