That's cause they don't cook the okra down enough. Cooking down okra is an all day affair. If it's done right, there should be no slime at all.

I agree.. Cook first...It is an all day affair.. Chopped onion, fresh garden tomatoes.. I found a lady who washes, and cut okra up and bags it. I cook mine in the oven...

I'll cook U a okra shrimp gumbo with eggs dropped in, u'll kiss my toes for... It's award winning..)))))))))

BAMMMMMM.. THERE IT IS... Perfect for a day like today..

That does sound good Gunner. One of my favorites is okra smothered just like you described then add some shrimp in it and pass that on some French Bread. Tonnerre, mais ca c'est bon, oui!!!
