roasted okra

Roasted okra is the simplest way to prepare okra. Okra loses its characteristic sliminess when roasted or air fried and develops a sultry flavor.

Roasted Okra

okra

salt

pepper

olive oil spray ((optional, if needed to prevent sticking))

First, start with the smallest okra you can find. Larger okra tends to be woody, which wouldn't work in this recipe.

Wash the okra. Trim off any excess stems, but do not cut into the okra pod itself.

Preheat the oven to 450 F. Spray a shallow baking dish with olive oil, if necessary, add okra, and season to taste. Give the okra one quick (1/2 second) spray with olive oil and put them into the oven. Bake, stirring every 5 minutes, until okra is browned on all sides, about 15 minutes. Serve hot out of the oven.

Preheat a standard air fryer to 390F or a Breville Air to 425F. Toss the freshly washed okra with seasoning and spread it in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Begin air frying, checking after about 7 minutes. Air fry until the okra is browning on all sides.

Air Fryer Instructions

Move over fried okra! This method for roasted okra comes together quickly and tastes delicious - perfectly seasoned, not slimy at all and even a little crispy. It&#039;s my fave way to prepare fresh okra.

Oven Roasted Okra

okra (rinsed and dried)

olive oil

thyme

garlic powder

sea salt

pepper (to taste)

cayenne pepper (optional)

Preheat

Trim

Trim the okra by cutting away the stem ends and the tips, just the very ends. Then cut the okra in half, lengthwise.

Toss

Place okra in a large bowl. Add oil and spices and toss to coat the okra halves.

Place

Place okra on a baking sheet in a single layer.

Bake

Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, shaking or stirring the okra at least twice during the roasting time. You&#39;ll know the okra is ready when it&#39;s lightly browned and tender.

Serve

Serve hot as they tend to lose the crispy texture as they cool.
