T and I: Lessons in Okra

Some veggies are best had frozen than fresh.

Okra is one of them.

T and I cooked okra today. The okra was bought from a nearby farmer's market. No sooner than the slime began to ooze from the okra I thought of Ellen Ripley'r nemesis in Aliens.

T said that American okra is best bought frozen, if the intention is to convert it into an Indian dish.

'Tis no wonder that Paula Deen's recommends the frozen variety in her okra and tomato recipe.
