Okra Recipes

An easy stew in just 3 steps!

This is a wonderful sidedish to go alone with chicken, fish, or chops.

I know that Okra is not to everyone's taste but in the summer when the tomatoes are fresh and the okra is small and tender, this is wonderful and reminds me of my childhood

very delicious ,warm,low calories dish from upper egypt which can be made as a soup or thick to be eaten with bread or beget

This is quite spicy, especially if feeding children. Serve in big bowls with a side of corn muffins. Serve lemon bars for desert.

Low calorie, all veg., no oil, and very filing dish

Nice Healthy Okra chili I modified from Roger Mooking's Okra Chili on his "Every Day Exotic" TV show

NOTE: Ingredient list and instructions are from Roger Mooking's recipe. The nutrition information above is from my modification (Turkey instead of Beef).

I use 2 green peppers, 1 red pepper, 1 yellow pepper, 2 onions, 1 pkg of cut okra, 1+ lbs lean ground turkey, 1 can of peeled tomatoes.

Purchased Cajun or Creole seasoning flavors both the catfish and vegetables in this 30-minute dinner. This dish is best with fresh vegetables, but I was pleasantly surprised at how well it turned out with frozen okra and corn. Serve with cheese grits and a green salad.

Feel free to use tilapia or basa instead of the catfish.

Make a pot of this easy chili for a comforting and warming dish. You can feed a crowd or freeze the leftovers.

This is a very tasty okra or bhindi recipe with onions

Oh no, another fried okra recipe! Yes, but this one is different. It uses crushed cashew nuts (which if you can't buy locally, can be substituted) and toasted wheat germ and sesame seeds for added fiber. My boys all love it and it's eaten up every time I make it.

This is a North Indian preperation of Bhindi is also known as Okra.
Worth 4 Weight Watcher points aprox. 1/2 cup serving.
Note: in any of these recipes, making your own ginger and garlic paste from scratch is always best!

This recipe is not exactly low-cal, but it is delicious, and I wanted to see how many calories it would have in it.

Good side dish for any Indian meal

A delicious, filling main entree that is high in protein, low in fat and goes great over Basmati rice (calories not included) and paired with Arabic Diced Salad (recipe available on SparkRecipes).

Simple, healthy and easy to make crispy baked okra. Healthy alternative to fries!

Ground beef, onions, peppers, tomatoes, corn, and okra

love this food , one of my favorites

This is really a compilation of a couple of recipes plus my own ideas

This recipe may sound gross, but if you try it, you will likely love it like my wife and sister did, both who thought they hated okra. The okra is processed finely and taste similar to barley in this stew.

A different take on a Southern favorite.

No fry okra
