Roasted Okra



 

Fresh snacks are the best summer treats!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

(WHAT YOU WILL NEED)

fresh okra

olive oil

salt/pepper

garlic powder

cajun seasoning

your favorite buttermilk ranch for dipping


Preheat oven to 450 degrees

Wash and cut up your okra--I cut it into rounds, but the smaller ones I cut lengthwise and expose the pretty seeds.

Place cut okra in a bowl, drizzle with a small amount of olive oil to coat, and sprinkle on seasonings.  Mix and place on cookie sheet.



Bake at 450 degrees for approx 20 minutes until brown. They never get totally crispy because they're roasted (not fried) so they want to soften.  This is okay because the char will make the crunch.

Serve immediately with buttermilk ranch.
