re: Sunday cooking and drinking thread

I grow a garden and right now my okra is going insane.

I gave some to a neighbor lady originally from Texas and she was telling me how she likes to cook it in crowder peas, so I got her recipe.

Damn fine, down home eating is what it is.

Cook down the crowder peas with some onion, garlic, bell pepper, celery, chunks of seasoning ham until tender and then just toss in whole small pods of okra in the pot and let them cook until tender. Nice combination and will do it again for sure.
