Instructions
0 Preheat the oven to 425°F. If it is not already, place the rack is in the middle of the oven. Turn it on 20-30 minutes before you plan to roast the okra. 1 Wash and dry the okra. Use a sharp knife to cut off the stems/caps, then slice them down the middle, length-wise, to reveal the seeds. 2 Place the split okra in a bowl. Measure in the extra virgin olive oil and the soy sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. You may do this with tongs or your hands 3 Place the okra seed-side facing down on the baking sheet. This helps the okra crisp up. 4 Roast for 20 minutes, then remove it from the oven. 5 Flip the okra using tongs. The okra should be seed-side facing up. (This side should have a golden brown color—if it does not, you need to pop it back in and roast it for a little longer.) 6 Roast for another 15 minutes, then broil for 3-5 minutes or until the tops of the okra are totally crispy. Keep you eyes on the okra, especially while broiling, because you do not want it to burn and every oven is a little different. 7 Serve warm with your favorite dinner, and enjoy!View original recipe
