stir-fried okraThis is one food which my grandfather, I called "Papa Pesyong" legacy to my taste. :) He introduced me to this vegetable the time when he has his okra garden. I was in my elementary years that time and I even helped him with my step grandmother in his little plantation and we then brought our foods in his little nipa hut then had our snacks and meal. I remember when it was snacks time, we bought "bibingka" big brown rice cakes in a neighbor who sells very yummy one. With it and with my grandparents, I learned how to eat this vegetables and until now it is one of my fave one. :) I missed my grandparents so much. They are the one who raised me but sad to say they are now in God's hands. Well, I guess they are happy watching me now. I love them so much! Anyway, so much about my reminiscing. :) Am a vegetables lover and am proud of that. :) My DH is a meat-lover and sometimes I do like to eat with a lot of meat too. Let's just then toss to this stir-fried okra I have. I mixed it with beef bouillon and spices like tomato, bell pepper, onion, garlic and an olive oil with soy sauce and a little water. It is great to pair with rice and pink lemonade. Have fun eating.. :)
