I am so excited to be able to create another Okra recipe this year because our summer garden Okra is giving us a second harvest! I asked my husband to plant a lot of Okra so I could freeze it for soups this winter. I have not frozen one piece yet because I can’t stop eating it! I am so happy how this turned out, not just because of how delicious it is, but also the gorgeous combination of colors. I think next time I may even add bacon!

  1. Okra isn’t something ready available in Western Australia, and there’s nothing really that substitutes for it. I should imagine adding bacon will make that a substantial meal.
