# Instructions:
01 -
Pile the crunchy okra onto a dish and dig in while it's hot.
02 -
Pop the tray in the oven for 25–30 minutes. The okra should brown at the edges and lose its slimy bits.
03 -
Lay the seasoned okra out on your tray in a single layer.
04 -
Dump your cut okra into a bowl with oil, salt, garlic powder, cumin, smoked paprika, and fennel. Give it all a good toss so every piece gets covered.

Get your oven going at 220°C. Cover a baking tray with parchment and have it ready.
# Notes:
01 -
Make sure you don't stack the okra—spread them out so they get nice and crispy.
