I grew up on fried okra and loved it. Then about a month ago, we bought some and Jinky prepared it by steaming the okra. Good lawd I had no idea how slimy it is when you don't fry it. I don't think I could eat it unless it is fried.

Beets are terrible....Ever tried Borscht, the Russian soup? Bleh....

Brussel sprouts are great with lots of butter, honey and (salt/white pepper).

Yes, but it's Kangkung in Indonesia (water spinach). I had to ask my wife for the definition.....

She cooks it with a spicy paste and it's really good! :thumbs:

Thanks for the tip. I believe water spinach is one of those "impossible to find stateside" items. Perhaps we will grow some and sell it!!!

Cancel that, you just gave me the lead on this item.....Doh.......
