This roasted okra with olive oil and garlic is wonderfully flavorful and so easy to make - it's ready in just 30 minutes.

Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh okra
- 2 tablespoons olive oil see notes
- 1 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt or ½ teaspoon of any other salt, including Morton kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
Optional dipping sauce:
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon hot sauce
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 450℉. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with foil or high-heat-resistant parchment paper.
- Rinse the okra and dry it on a clean kitchen towel or on paper towels. Trim the ends if you wish (this is not mandatory and I usually don't).
- Place the okra in a large bowl and toss with the olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Arrange the okra in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Roast the okra until lightly browned and tender, about 20 minutes, stirring halfway through baking.
- While the okra is in the oven, mix the dipping sauce ingredients (mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and hot sauce) if you plan on using it.
- Serve the okra with or without the dipping sauce.
Notes
- The nutrition info does not include the optional dipping sauce.
- To improve the okra's texture and remove its slime, you should roast it at very high heat, so set your oven to 450°F. In many recipes, you can play a little with the oven temperature, but here, I highly recommend sticking with a truly hot oven.
- If you prefer an oil with a high smoke point, use avocado oil.
- You can keep the leftovers in the fridge, in an airtight container, for 3-4 days. Reheat them uncovered in a 350°F oven. They are also delicious when served cold, antipasti style.
