I fucking LOVE okra and I'm glad to see that it's even good at other things than me turning it into the most delicious, crispy and nutritious snack you've ever had. When you cook them right like we do down south (yeee-haw!), they'll never be slimy like that shit you get in the freezer section at a grocery store.

I got 8 okra stalks just coming up in my garden that will yield me many, many pounds of okra throughout this summer.

Cut off the stem end

Slice lengthwise

Drizzle with chili oil and salt

Roast at 425 for 25-30 minutes, turning once

That's literally all you need to do for an amazing crispy and spicy snack
