Simple Southern Succotash Veggie Medley

March 19th, 2009

from Danielle Adams

1/2 Onion
2-3 Tomatoes (depends on the size - 2 if x-large) Or 1 can diced tomatoes if tomatoes are out of season
Handful or More of Summer Squash
Handful or More of Okra
1 Tablespoon of Olive Oil
1 Tablespoon of Butter
Cajun Seasoning
Salt and Pepper to Taste
Can of Corn or 2 cups Butter Beans

Simply Sauté all of the above and then let it simmer for 15 minutes or so and it makes a great dish…sometimes I even add a cup or so of cheddar cheese on top at the end and then our kids really love it.

Pickled Okra

In sterilized pint jars put

1 tsp dill seed
1/4 tsp celery seed

Pack tight with okra. Make a brine with the ratios (you may want to reduce this for less quantity) 8 cups water, 8 cups white vinegar, 3/4 cups salt. Heat brine to just boiling. Fill jars with brine. Cap and process in hot water bath for 10 minutes. Enjoy (best after two weeks of curing)
