Okra (okra, lady's fingers) is an annual herbaceous plant.
Okra's taste is mild, almost herbaceous. It is sometimes compared to the taste of eggplant, asparagus or green (green) beans. Marinated okra tastes like pickled gherkins.
The use of marinated okra is possible as an appetizer, for example, for burgers or served with cold cuts. It can also be added to salads, soups, stews, or fried in a frying pan. Okra goes well with apples, carrots, tomatoes, onions, sweet peppers, corn, eggplant and spinach.
