Okra Adobo
- 1 pound okra pods (no need to remove caps)
- 1/4 cup tamari(I prefer SanJ Low Sodium)
- 1/2 cup white, red wine or sherry vinegar
- 1/3 cup water
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
- 2 bay leaves, broken up
- Put all into a deep saute pan, cover and bring to boil. Set lid ajar, reduce to simmer , After 10 minutes, taste and adjust seasoning. Cook 5-10 minutes til okra is tender and filled with flavor. Remove from heat, remove okra from pan and cook down juices to thicken a bit. Pour over okra and serve.
- Note: When I make Chicken Adobo, I always have some leftover sauce that I keep in the freezer. The more it gets used and supplemented with further Adobo chicken dishes(like a Starter!), the more chicken essence/gelatin gets added If you have some, you can use this for all or part of this recipe.
