Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 lb Fresh Okra
1/2 c Olive oil
1 lg Onion
5 lg Tomatoes, peeled, seeded
3 Cloved garlic, halved
1 t Sugar
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tb Lemon juice

Wash okra and cut off any hard stems. Blanch in
salted water 3 minutes.

Heat olive oil. Add onion and cook until translucent.
Add okra and cook until it begins to soften. Add
tomatoes, garlic, sugar, salt and pepper. Cook 2 to 3
minutes. Pour in enough water to cover. Cover and
simmer about one hour, or until okra is tender. Stir
in lemon juice. Serve hot. I especially like this
recipe using garden fresh ingredients.
