Best to fry shrimp first for no more than 2 minutes, then add last to ochroes. Best not to cover pot while cooking, to prevent steaming. Hope my useful tips helps you, all the best.😊

Okra and shrimp, what's not to like. Looks very good. I will give it a try, but I have to hold off on the early entry of the shrimp.

Adding a teaspoon of vinegar to the okra and then cover and cook will reduce the slime.

You have been making my day. I have set a goal to lose 50 lbs in three months by biking, going to the gym and eating fresh good food. I have dropped 20 lbs in 5 weeks and you helped. I have been cooking your wonderful dishes for my wife and I. This dish with a fresh salad makes for a beautiful dinner with some wine. The other good thing is that my wife is trimming down as she has to eat what I make. She works and I am retired. I was a mess daddy in the US Army, 28 years and I know how to cook.
