The sauce was a bit too salty for my taste, but I think I just added too much salt. Next time I will be more careful.

I'm not a big fan of okra, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I was pleasantly surprised! The okra was cooked perfectly and the sauce was delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think I just added too much cayenne pepper. Next time I will use less.

This recipe was a lifesaver! I had no idea what to do with the okra I had on hand, and this recipe turned out amazing. My picky kids even liked it!

The okra was cooked perfectly, but the sauce was a bit too thick for my taste. I would thin it out with some water or broth next time.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more spices next time.

The okra was a bit slimy for my taste, but the sauce was delicious. I think I would try cooking the okra for a little less time next time.
