Ingredients

• 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 pounds small okra
• Salt and freshly ground pepper
• 6 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
• 1/2 cup salted roasted cashews, chopped
• 1 teaspoon finely grated lime zest, plus lime wedges, for serving

Preparation

In a large skillet, heat the oil until shimmering. Add the okra, season with salt and pepper and cook over high heat, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes.

Add the garlic to the skillet and cook over moderate heat until softened and fragrant, 3 minutes. Stir in the cashews and lime zest. Transfer the okra to a platter, garnish with the lime wedges and serve.
