Method
Preparing Okra Ribs
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Prepare the Okra
Wash the okra thoroughly and trim the ends. Cut the okra into halves or quarters, lengthwise, to resemble ribs.
Bake the Okra
Spread the seasoned okra on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the okra is crispy and golden brown.
Making Lime Aioli
Prepare the Garlic
Mince the garlic cloves finely.
Mix the Ingredients
In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, minced garlic, fresh lime juice, and lime zest. Stir until smooth.
Season the Aioli
Add salt to taste and mix again until well combined.
Assembling the Dish
Plate the Okra
Once the okra is done baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly.
Add the Toppings
Sprinkle chili flakes and chopped fresh cilantro over the baked okra. Grate the parmesan cheese on top.
Serve with Aioli
Serve the crispy okra ribs with a side of lime aioli for dipping.
