Okra & Sautéed Tomatoes
This Okra & Sautéed Tomatoes recipe contains a good deal of garlic, which I adore, but surprisingly when I tasted the finished dish it didn’t taste anywhere near as garlicky as I expected. And as per the suggestion in the book, it does taste better the next day when the flavours have had a chance to develop.
Ingredients
- 10 cloves of garlic (finely sliced)
- 4 tbs of extra virgin olive oil
- 400 g of okra
- 6 tomatoes (chopped)
- 1 cloves head of garlic (separated and unpeeled)
- 1 tsp of cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp of allspice
- 2 tbs sugar
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- 1
Place a large frying pan over a medium heat and add the olive oil and garlic and sauté until the garlic is soft. Add the okra and cook for 5 minutes, stirring gently, so as not to break. Add the chopped tomatoes, unpeeled cloves of garlic, cinnamon, allspice, sugar, salt and pepper and reduce to a simmer. Cover and leave to cook for 15 minutes .
