Okra with Scallion, Lime, and Ginger image

Steaming unlocks the succulence of okra. Here, the pods are tossed with slivered ginger and a Vietnamese-inspired scallion oil in an all-purpose dish that's great with grilled steak or chicken, or with nothing more than a fragrant bowlful of jasmine rice.

This recipe was a disaster! The okra was slimy and the scallion, lime, and ginger marinade was overpowering. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. The okra was cooked well, but the scallion, lime, and ginger marinade didn't add much flavor. I would recommend adding some additional spices or herbs to the marinade.
