This is my kind of dish and I make something very similar. When I’m in a hurry there is always a can of okra and tomatoes by Glory Foods in the cupboards.

I haven’t had red meat in over twenty years and I don’t miss it, but my cholesterol is still a little high thanks to the joys of aging.

Janet, your blog is very interesting and I wish you the best with it. Robberies are appalling and I’m afraid with the economy they will increase. I hope you do get to Africa one day and I look forward to hearing about it on your blog.

Can’t go wrong with okra and rice. I’ve got a bumper crop of okra growing in my garden that should be ready soon. Thanks for the recipe.

I love pickled okra! I haven't noticed fresh okra in our grocery stores in Utah, but then I have not been on the look out for it. If I find some, I will definitely try this. I might have to plant my own plants in the garden next year. I will bookmark this recipe for the future. Thanks for sharing. By the way, I love beef, but it doesn't like me. I have some allergies in my intestines to beef. It is really weird, but oh well. I think it is a cow thing, as milk, and milk by products, as well as the meat do the same thing. I know I am strange, but I like being strange too. heee heee heee. So I am mostly a pork, turkey, chicken and fish eater. Shari My Food on Fridays Post

I haven’t used a lot of okra in my cooking, but I have a southern son-in-law who will love this recipe. I’ll make it for him the next time he visits. Thanks for sharing with us.

Up here in the north, we just don’t think about okra very much. But I like most things southern, so I like fried okra. I’ve not experimented with it in its normal state. Perhaps I’ll give it a go sometimes, because it is available in grocery stores…you just have to really look for it.
