When it’s good and bubbly sprinkle some nutritional yeast over the top (for added Vitamin B), parmesan or maybe cream cheese if you eat dairy. You could eat it like this-as stewed okra and tomatoes-but it makes a delicious breakfast if you reheat some in a small non-stick frying pan. Simmer on medium heat with lid on, then drop the temperature to a low simmer for a few hours with lid ajar. (If you don’t have a good balsamic you can reduce regular balsamic in a sauce pan to half the original amount.) Add 1/2 cup of lemon juice, and stir. Add 1/4-to 1/2 cup of good, thick balsamic vinegar. Stir in 1-2 teaspoons of oregano, add salt pepper to taste. Or, if you want it to be less “runny,” add more okra than tomatoes. Stir the okra and tomatoes until proportions are even.
For spice, add some of the jalapeños from the share the week before, alternately habaneros or cayenne also work well.
Stewed okra skin#
(You can skin them if desired, but it’s not necessary.) The Juliet and Campari tomatoes from this week’s share were perfect for this and easy to halve or quarter.
I guess I need to find some more ways to use it.CSA member Lauren Klimetz shared her recipe for a hearty, spicy breakfast that makes great use of the bounty of okra and medium-sized Juliet and Campari tomatoes we’ve been having in our late-summer shares. We paired this with ribs for dinner and it was amazing! The dish complimented the ribs well and I felt like we got a burst of flavor by adding the bacon grease to the veggies too.ĭoes anyone else save their bacon grease? My husband does but I almost always end up throwing it out.
Stewed okra mod#
It was somewhat of a mod podge dinner, but it was so delicious and the perfect way to use your own produce and eggs.
Stewed okra plus#
Just the other day we had bacon for dinner and then a bunch of garden fresh produce plus some eggs from our chickens too. I know for us it’s usually on our menu every single week. This doesn’t take much just about a tablespoon adds a great taste to it, plus who doesn’t love bacon? One of the key flavors for this dish is created by using a bit of bacon grease to grease the pan. It’s a very simple way to make veggies tasty! I almost always make it grilled or stewed like this recipe. We grow it every year and this year we are picking okra almost daily from our garden.
I remember as a kid never wanting to try okra, then I did and was hooked ever since. She doesn’t like hardly anything but give her okra and she is happy. It doesn’t lack on flavor and taste either…I was eating this like candy! My daughter even grabbed raw okra and ate it and she loved it. This dish combines basically all my favorites from the garden into one delicious treat! I have to admit I’m a sucker for some fried okra, but this is a much lighter way to go about it. This Stewed Okra with Bacon is a great way to use up garden fresh okra.
