Okra and sausage stir-fry is a quick, flavorful dish that blends the crunch of okra with the savory richness of sausage. Here’s a simple guide to making it deliciously.
Ingredients:
- 300g fresh okra, washed and sliced into 1cm rounds
- 200g smoked sausage, sliced diagonally
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 red chili, thinly sliced (optional for heat)
- 1 tbsp cooking oil
- 1 soy sauce, 1 tsp oyster sauce, ½ tsp sugar, and a pinch of salt for seasoning
- A handful of basil or cilantro for garnish (optional)
Steps:
1. Prep the okra: To reduce sliminess, toss sliced okra with 1 tsp salt and set aside for 10 minutes, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
2. Cook the sausage: Heat oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Sausage slices until golden brown, then remove and set aside.
3. Stir-fry aromatics: In the same wok, add garlic and chili. Stir-fry until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
4. Combine and season: Add okra and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp. Return sausage to the wok, then pour in the sauce mixture. Toss well to coat everything evenly.
5. Finish and serve: Cook for another minute until the sauce thickens. Garnish with herbs if using, and serve hot with steamed rice.
This dish balances textures and flavors perfectly—crisp okra, juicy sausage, and a savory-sweet sauce. It’s a versatile recipe that works as a weeknight dinner or a hearty side dish!
