CUMIN-SPICED OKRA AND TOMATOES
Okra and tomatoes are a classic combo. This is a delicious, spicy variation that's really easy to make. I made this often in college and turned my okra-skeptical roommate into a fan. I like this served over brown rice, but it's also great thinned out into a stew.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a dutch oven over medium heat.
- Saute onion for a few minutes until it begins to soften.
- Add garlic, jalapeno, and cumin and cook 1-2 minutes longer. Don't brown the garlic or it will get bitter.
- Add okra, tomatoes, and tomato juice. Salt and pepper to taste.
- You can add water to make a soupier dish, or leave it fairly dry. I add 1/4-1/2 cup.
- Cover and cook 5-10 minutes. Okra should soften and the juices will become quite thick.
