Time 35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/2 cup white wine
1 1/2 pounds okra, stems trimmed, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or to taste
4 large tomatoes, cored, seeded and chopped
3 sprigs fresh thyme
2 bay leaves, preferably fresh
Coarse kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a saute pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring, until soft and translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 45 to 60 seconds. Add the wine and cook until reduced by half, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the okra, red pepper flakes, tomatoes, thyme and bay leaves. Season with salt and pepper. Cover, decrease the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the okra is just tender, about 15 minutes. Taste and adjust for seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

I love okra and tomatoes, but this recipe was just okay. The okra was a bit tough and the tomatoes were bland. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The okra was cooked well and the tomatoes added a nice sweetness. I think I'll try it again with less cayenne pepper.

I'm not usually a fan of okra, but this recipe changed my mind. The combination of spices and the slight crunch of the okra was amazing! I'll definitely be making this again.

This okra and tomato dish was a delightful blend of flavors and textures. The okra was cooked perfectly, with a slight crunch and a hint of smokiness. The tomatoes added a vibrant sweetness, while the spices brought a touch of warmth and complexity.
