At this point I'll admit that I'm a total goner for okra. How can you be so simple, so interesting, so satisfying all at once, okra??
This recipe for spicy oven-roasted okra couldn't be easier, and it's so good. Both times I've made it, I've ended up eating all of it as soon as it's out of the oven. I used cornmeal rather than millet flour, cut back the salt, but not too much else was changed.
Also want: fried okra with black lentils and spices.
