Ingredients for Creamed Okra On Toast Recipe

  • To cook the okra pods put them in boiling water, using one teaspoon of salt to a quart of water; add one tablespoon of lemon juice to the water also. Cook about one-half hour or until the okra is tender. Drain the water from the okra, reserving one cup of it for the sauce. Prepare the sauce as follows:
  • 1 cup water from the okra
  • ½ cup cream
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup milk
  • ¼ cup strained tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions

  1. Heat the okra water, the cream and milk in a double boiler.
  2. Rub the flour and butter together, and pour over it a little of the heated liquid, stirring meanwhile.
  3. When mixed thin enough to pour, turn this back into the remainder of the hot liquid.
  4. Set in a double boiler, and stir until thickened.
  5. Add the salt and strained tomato just before serving.
  6. Place three or four of the okra pods on a nicely toasted slice of bread for each serving, and over this pour a spoonful or more of the prepared sauce.
