Okra recipes?

[jkf123]

My dad gave me about 2 pounds of okra from his garden. I need some easy caveman recipes other than fried? Any suggestions?

I'm not help since the only way I eat it is fried. I've tried it other ways, but man they are so good fried.

Add the tomatoes, wine, lemon juice, parsley, salt, and pepper. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes soften. Add the shrimp and continue cooking for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the shrimp turns pink and opaque.
Serve with hot cooked rice.

I'm picking a 5 gal bucket full about every 3 days. To keep okra for frying all year, cut up and put in 1 gal zip-lock- add corn meal and shake to coat real well. Put in freezer and take out what you what to fry during the year and put the rest back in freezer.
Okra & tomotoes. Cut okra, peeled tomotoes, onion, bell pepper, garlic, salt, pepper and tony's. Simmer on medium til okra is soft, usually about 2 1/2 hours. Freeze in qt zip-locks for winter time delight. This also is good over rice
