Directions:

  1. Wash okra and carefully peel the tips, keeping the cone shape intact.

  2. Spread okra on a tray, drizzle with red wine vinegar, and leave in the sun for 1–2 hours to reduce sliminess.

  3. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

  4. In a pan, heat half the olive oil. Sauté the okra gently for 4–5 minutes without over-stirring.

  5. Add the tomato paste and stir gently to coat. Remove from heat.

  6. Add salt, sugar, pepper, and mint. Mix lightly.

  7. Transfer okra to a baking dish. Nestle cherry tomato halves among the okra and sprinkle with crumbled feta.

  8. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil and add ¼ cup warm water.

  9. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes.

  10. Lower oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and roast for another hour.

  11. Let cool to room temperature before serving.

Serving Suggestion:

Serve at room temperature as a vegetarian main or alongside grilled meat or fish, with crusty bread to soak up the flavorful olive oil.
