Okra Salad



INGREDIENTS:

3 slices bacon

1 (16 ounce) package frozen cut okra

1 onion, chopped

1 green bell pepper, seeded and diced

1 medium tomato, diced

1/3 cup white sugar

1/4 cup corn oil

1/4 cup white vinegar

DIRECTIONS:

1. Place bacon in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook
until evenly browned, then remove to paper towels to drain.
Pour off most of the bacon grease, leaving a thin coating
on the pan. Add okra to the bacon grease in the skillet,
and fry until tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer the okra
to a salad bowl, and toss with the onion, green pepper,
and tomato. Crumble in the bacon.

2. In a small bowl, whisk together the sugar, corn oil,
and vinegar until the sugar has dissolved. Pour over the
salad, and toss to coat. Chill for 30 minutes before
serving.
