Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 slices bacon, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1 (10 ounce) package frozen cut okra
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
1 (20 ounce) package frozen corn
1 tablespoon file powder
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Place bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir to release some of the juices, then add the onion and okra. Fry until tender and browned, stirring constantly. Be careful, as this tends to brown quickly.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, young okra: Look for okra pods that are small, tender, and free of blemishes. Avoid pods that are large, woody, or have brown spots.
  • Trim the okra properly: Cut off the stem end of each okra pod and then slice the pod into 1-inch pieces. Do not slice the okra too thinly, as it will become slimy when cooked.
  • Soak the okra in vinegar: This helps to reduce the okra's sliminess. Soak the okra in a bowl of vinegar for 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Cook the okra over high heat: This helps to prevent the okra from becoming slimy. Sauté the okra in a hot skillet with a little oil until it is tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the corn at the end of cooking: This prevents the corn from overcooking and becoming tough.
  • Season the dish to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a little bit of sugar to balance out the acidity of the tomatoes.

Conclusion:

Creamy Sweet Corn with Okra is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for summer cookouts. The combination of sweet corn, tender okra, and creamy sauce is sure to please everyone at the table. This dish is also a great way to use up fresh okra from your garden.
