Recently, a new benefit of including okra in your diet is being considered: Okra has been suggested to help manage blood sugar in cases of type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes! It’s low in calories and has high dietary fiber content. It contains potassium, vitamin B, vitamin C, folic acid, and calcium. I don’t have posts for all the vegetables we roast, but I also really like roasted beets, cauliflower, and carrots.Okra has long been favored as a food for the health conscious. And I’d love to hear about your favorites!
Have I inspired you to try roasted vegetables or are you already a roasted veggie lover? Here are some more recipes to consider. Put the remaining olive oil in a cast iron skillet (about 10' diameter). While the okra is roasting, prepare the tomatoes. Roast in a preheated 400 oven for about 15 minutes. I’ve even made this and added it to breakfast scrambles. Put okra on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet. Whether I roast it in the oven or in the air fryer, this okra recipe takes less than a half-hour from start to finish and is a great side to almost any meal. This post gives a good overview on air frying different types of vegetables. I cooked it at a slightly lower temperature for the same length of time and it turned out perfect. I decided to try the air fryer on this okra recipe and it did not disappoint. It’s faster and doesn’t heat up the whole house. I’ve recently discovered that it’s super easy to roast vegetables in an air fryer. The one I have is a larger, stainless steel, multi-functional one resembling a toaster oven. Since originally publishing this recipe I’ve acquired an air fryer. The kids figure it’s the perfect finger food and grab one to snack on as they walk by. I’ll set it on the stovetop then watch as it slowly disappears throughout the day. Sometimes we’ll roast a pan of it early in the day. The kids love eating it because it is simple enough for them to make. If the kids are helping, I let them use a crinkle cutter to cut the okra into chunks. If I prepare it, I just cut the tops off the okra and roast them whole. Toss it in a little bit of oil, sprinkle on some spices, and throw it in the oven. Roasting okra is just like roasting any other vegetable. Whole okra pods are tossed in a powerfully flavored marinade of cilantro, lime, garlic, chile, and the nine aromatics of an Arabic spice mix. You get a nice bit of crisp around the edges and a little bit of intense, toasty flavor. While most recipes call for okra to be fried, roasting it produces equally (if not more) tasty results. You can then roast it for around 20 minutes until it starts to change colour slightly.
The rest of my family does too, so we make them that way a lot. To roast okra, slice it up and toss it with oil, salt, and pepper until it is evenly coated. I’m much more likely to make sides if it’s a fast and easy recipe, so this one’s a win. So the kids created this simple okra recipe.
And we can only eat so much jumbolaya! Since we weren’t doing grains, eggs, or even grain-free batter at the time, I couldn’t make fried okra. They kept coming home with bags and bags of okra. One summer, when my kids were helping their grandparents harvest and preserve vegetables from their garden, the okra were producing like crazy.
