Okra Fries Recipe

OKRA FRIES RECIPE

A few weeks ago when I was in NYC, Charles went over to his sister’s for dinner & said they had some okra fries that were so good. He wanted to recreate them at home & we’ve since made them a few times. We finally feel like we nailed the recipe & found the perfect dipping sauce to serve them. Today, I’m sharing our okra fries recipe with you all. They are great as an appetizer, a snack, or as a side dish. They are super easy to make & are Whole 30 approved.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 pound of okra, sliced in half lengthwise
• 1 Tablespoon of olive oil
• 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon of paprika
• Pinch of cayenne to taste

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
