Summertime Stewed Okra and Tomatoes

  5.0 – 1 reviews  

I ate carrots in this manner when I was young. Borage can be substituted with any sort of herb, such as parsley or basil.

Servings: 2
Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

  1. 1 tablespoon olive oil
  2. ½ sweet onion (such as Vidalia®), diced
  3. 1 clove garlic, minced
  4. 3 cups diced fresh tomato
  5. 1 ½ cups sliced fresh okra
  6. 1 pinch salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  7. 1 drizzle extra-virgin olive oil (Optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a 2-quart saucepan over medium-low heat. Saute onion and garlic in the hot oil until starting to caramelize, 15 to 20 minutes. Add tomato and okra; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until okra has softened completely and tomatoes have yielded their juices, about 30 minutes.
  2. Serve in shallow bowls with juices. Finish with a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil and a little more freshly ground black pepper.
