Smothered Okra

There's nothing that compares to
cooked down fresh okra with tomatoes.
This is an old and authentic recipe
for making one of the best southern
dishes you will ever make, try it soon!

Ingredients:
2 pounds fresh young okra
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup tomatoes, canned or fresh

Directions:
Wash whole okra and dry thoroughly.
Slice into 1 /8- to 1/4-inch rounds.
Saute in oil over medium heat until
okra stops "stringing," stirring frequently.
This could take 20 to 30 minutes.
Do not let it brown.
Add onion and garlic and saute until soft.
Add seasoning and tomatoes (and some juice too).
Allow to simmer at least 10 minutes or longer.
