Variations & Tips:
Now, sugar, this is a recipe that allows for some play. If you’ve got corn fresh off the cob, throw some in there with the okra to add a bit of sweetness and texture. And if bacon isn’t your thing or you’re looking to lighten it up, a splash of olive oil can stand in for the bacon grease.
For my vegetarian kin, leave out the bacon and use a smoky seasoning like smoked paprika to echo that depth of flavor. And don’t forget that okra is nature’s thickener, so if you like your dish a little less stewy, cook it a bit less; for a thicker stew, let it go a little longer. Enjoy, y’all!
