Directions

  1. Heat oil in a saute pan over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until soft and fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add okra and cook for 5 minutes. Sprinkle cornmeal on top, cook and stir until okra is fork-tender and cornmeal absorbs excess moisture, about 2 minutes.

  2. Serve topped with Parmesan cheese.

Recipe Note
