How to make Smothered Okra with Shrimp and Smoked Sausage
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 ก.ค. 2024
- New Orleans Native Charlie Andrews demonstrates how to make New Orleans Smothered Okra. Smothering is a cooking technique used by both Creole and Cajun Cuisines of Louisiana. It involves cooking Meat, Seafood or vegetables in a covered pot or pan with a small amount of liquid over a period of time. We take the Okra along with our Onions, Bell Pepper, Celery and Garlic which has been caramelized. We simmer that in a flavorful shrimp stock until it is cooked all the way down. Then we add our Shrimp and Smoked Sausage. Then we let it cook a bit more and that's it. Hope you'll give this New Orleans Classic a try!

You’re one of the TH-cam cooking channels I appreciate most! You actually can cook! Old school, with no funny business! It also helps that you’re also a NOLA native! 💛
That is good to hear. Thanks a lot. Yes absolutely! :)
@@CharlieTheCookAndrews no
@@CharlieTheCookAndrews to be
Hi Charlie, Im a New Orleans native as well and I just wanted to say I liked the tutorial. Another way to decrease the slim from the okra is to put a little oil in a pan add the okra and put it in the oven at 400 degrees for 30-35 mins or until you check and stir the okra to so little to no slim left then add the okra to your stock. doing it that way also alleviates having to continuously stir the okra and you get more orka chucks instead of paste. Great job on the tutorial peace and love.
+li Meyers Heyyy there my fellow New Orleans native! Haaaaa not a bad idea but I never tried the oven thing for okra! Plus i like a slight bit of the slime in mines! to be honest! lol Thanks so much for the suggestion as it will be a very long time before i ever make this dish again. Last time i made this dish before i made it for youtube was probably before katrina lol Thanks so much for commenting! :)
Hey can you do the baking method with frozen okra??
lorne gant yes. I’ve tried It with frozen before. It’s takes most of the slime out of It. I like the oven option better.
@@lornegant7802 You read my mind =D
Oh my I didn’t know that

Andrew you are a great cook, and I made this dish, and I thought it was incredible. Thanks a lot for sharing.
Hello Michael. I am happy to hear that the smothered okra turned out good. You're welcome glad I was able to help you. Thanks for leaving feedback!
Thank god I found you!😩 I'm in Georgia missing my grandmas cooking back home in Louisiana and people look at me like I'm crazy when I ask for smothered okra or cabbage lol
I'm happy that you found me also! Oh yeah that's how those out of town people are. You start talking about gumbo and they will have a puzzled look on their face like Gumbo? What's that? lol
that what I'm looking for the smoothered cabbage and okra recipe
😂😂
I love this dish!! I love your reaction when you get to eat your food---that's how you know it's good! Most of the cooking videos on TH-cam don't show the cook eating their own dish!
+Andrea Griffin Ha ha ha ha Yes i enjoy it as well. It was long overdue for me to make this dish! Yes true. Most don't and most also don't respond to the comments by their subscribers. I like to connect with my people! Thank you so much for commenting!
I can’t wait to try this! I’m a New Orleans native and no one prepared okra like my grandmother. She died without passing down her recipe and I’ve tried and failed to replicate it. I’m hoping your recipe gets me close as it looks a lot like hers!
Awesome! Another New Orleans native like me! Oh wow I am sorry to hear about that. Hope this recipe comes as close as to how your grandmother made it. Thanks!
You made me so hungry. I'm 6 months pregnant and craving okra! Great job as usual, be blessed!
Wow congratulations on your pregnancy! Thanks so much!!! :)
Oh this so looks sooo good! I can’t wait to try this recipe...love your videos!
Happy to hear that you enjoy my videos! Thanks!
Charlie, thank you, I cooked this tonight for dinner (10/9/2019). It was delicious, and a truly comforting food. Thank you.
Awesome! Happy to hear that the Smothered okra turned out good! You're welcome not a problem. Glad I was able to help. Thanks for leaving feedback!
I love this dish because my grandmother would make it for me all the time when I was a kid. I’m from lake Charles but I now live in south korea. Thanks for you videos ... they remind me of home. Much love to you Charlie ☝🏾
Cool. I bet your grandmother made some good smothered okra! You're welcome! Happy to hear that my videos brings back memories of being back home!
yes I just made it Its good thank you my husband loved it
Awesome! Glad that ya'll enjoyed it! :) Thanks for leaving feedback i really appreciate it!
OMG! that looks so good I could almost taste it. Thank you
I appreciate the compliments. You're welcome, not a problem!
Charlie, I love your channel. It's authentic. Some videos are too "professional" and the they take all the soul out of the cooking. I wanna feel like I'm watching a family member cook. Keep up the great job. Much love!
Hello there! I am happy to hear that you enjoy my channel. Thank you so much for the compliments I really appreciate it! :)
Thank you for making this easy to follow. An excellent presentation
You're welcome. I appreciate the compliments.
Made this tonight and appreciate the recipe. I grew a lot of okra this year and had made gumbo last week so was looking for another okra dish and ran across this. I cook many things often and especially Cajun but realized I have eaten smothered before but never tried to cook smothered anything so this dish was nice to try.
Definitely anyone want a good dish to cook up I suggest this one. Everyone loved it and even my brother and he is picky. My wife finished cooking it and she added some chicken bullion and something else though but I am just the prep cook. She did say we will make it again. (Meaning I will)
Also seen another recipe or 2 of your I am going to try and will leave you comments on them when I do so. Many thanks for the vid and you make good ones. Very concise and easy to understand which is actually rare.
Hello there! I am happy to hear that the Smothered okra turned out good and that everyone enjoyed it. You're welcome not a problem. Thanks for the compliments and for leaving feedback!
@@CharlieTheCookAndrews Thanks for replying. Wanted to come back and say that the next day it was even better. Your advice to make it the day before and serve it the next day was right on the money. I even thought it was better but my brother and wife ate most of it up so I only got 2 more plates of it. My brother was selfish and ate 5 plates. They are saying they want this again so will probably make it one day and wait the next to serve it.
Also am now making your smothered potatoes with shrimp and sausage now as I write this so expect a review on that vid tonight/tomorrow. Hope I do it justice.
@@CharlieTheCookAndrews My babe bought me the ingredients to make this again so today am doing so. Usually if a new dish is added to our rotation of regualar meals it means every couple of months so she had to really enjoy it to do it this soon.
@@luckytxn LoL@5 plates! That's what happens when something is good. Can't stop eating lol.
I think im try this it looks wonderful!!!
Thank you Katrina! Let me know how it turns out!
Yum! 😋 Charlie that looks very good! Thanks for sharing this recipe! ❤

Thank you! Awesome! You really think so? Maybe we are lol Yes i know right! You're welcome! :)
Great job as usual, Charlie. My husband cooks okra the same way you do but he adds corn. We haven't had it in a while and you made me have a taste for it. Thank you for another great video.
Thank you! Yes I only add corn when I make the creole version! :) To be honest this is my first time cooking this in over 10 years is believe. it's been a long time for me. You're welcome! Stay tuned because Charlie is back ha ha ha ha lol Thanks so much for commenting! :)
+Charlie “The Cook” Andrews You're welcome, Charlie. And think about making cabbage one day. I don't think you did that one yet.
+nf094e Yes I can't forget about the cabbage and the greens. Oh yeah! That's in the works to be released soon!
Loving this okra dish. Many great memories of. NEW. ORLEANS. THANKS
Happy to hear that you enjoyed the video and that it brought back memories. You're welcome.
Thx for okra’s tutorial,
Peace to You Charlie..!
You're welcome Same.
Man you always have great videos. Very thorough. And everything looks so great
Hey there! I appreciate the compliments, and I'm also happy to hear that you enjoy my videos. Thanks!
Wow this was a great presentation. Cant wait until mines is done cooking ❤️
That's awesome. Let me know how it turns out. Thanks!
Thankyou Charlie ❤❤❤
You're welcome!!
I’m really enjoying your videos. In my family, we use less okra, and we include corn and stewed tomatoes. I learned to make it with smoked sausage from my grandmother’s sister, many years ago when I was a student at Xavier, but my daddy always made it with ham. They used to call it “Creole Succotash”. It is one of my favorites! Thank you for your wonderful tutorials. You’re a very clean, old school, New Orleans cook. Many blessings to you.
Hello Terri! Happy to hear that you enjoy my videos! Some people add corn, stewed tomatoes and smoked sausage. Creole Succotash? Never heard of CREOLE Succotash. You're welcome and Thanks for the compliments!
Charlie Andrews “Creole Succotash”
Might be a way to distinguish it from regular succotash. Ah, I forgot to say we also add Lima beans. Maybe because it has corn and Limas. In any case, I love your videos! Your clean way if cooking is impressive, and you have a wonderful appearance and personality. You represent your city to the utmost. I will recommend your channel to my family and friends.
Oh okay cool. I'll have to read about succotash. Wow that's nice to add the lima beans in there. Thank you so much for the compliments and sharing my channel, I really appreciate it.
Looks delicious.
Thank you Ramel!
I'm going to mess around and gain weight watching your videos Charlie...my fellow New Orleans native...Lol...it'll be worth it.
Don't gain weight because of me lol jk I'm sure it will be worth it. Thanks for commenting my fellow New Orleans native!
I made this last night following your recipe adding corn I love corn in mine but it came out great very minimal slime my husband and son who are picky ate it up thanks again I've been looking for a recipe and I found it
Awesomeeee! Glad that it came out good with less slime! Very niceeee! Thanks so much for leaving feedback!
Go head on Charlie. You got down as usual. Woowee this looks so good. I may make this.
Thanks for the compliments Dauphne! Appreciate it!
Looks good!
Thank you!
This is one of my favorite dishes!!!!
Good to hear! Thanks! :)
Thank you so much for this recipe. My family (from Opelousas l, Louisiana) would put whole blue crab in as well. We called it long okra. One of my favs
You're welcome! Not a problem. Cool that is a good thing!
Thank you Charlie
You're welcome Bryan! :)
looks so yummy, a bang on the table and a thumbs up yessss I love
Ha ha ha ha lol Righttt! Thanks so much! If I bang on the table and give a thumbs-up then you know it's good! :)
+Charlie “The Cook” Andrews 'Yes Sir I know you mean business
+madden Brown Exactly! :)
+Charlie “The Cook” Andrews I made this dish for my granny and it was a hit, I mean man I was surprised myself and I never ate okra in my life, but this dish was really good Thank you again
Yesssss Honey... thanks for teaching me how to make my favorite food in my new house for the holidays 😗😗😗 i so luv my city and all the great food that New Orleans has to offer
You're welcome not a problem! Glad I was able to help. Thanks!
No thank you chef Charlie you where more then a great help everyone loved the smothered okra recipe that you did and mine's came out superb so thank you once again continue putting up the recipes from a great City and I'll continue to try a faithful and loyal fan now😗😗😗
I've never used this process I will next time I do my smoother okra. I usually fry the slime out then add stock but looks like we come out with the same great tasting dish. Great job
Awesome! Give it a try! You may like it better than frying the okra! Thanks so much for the compliments and let me know the results when you're done!
Happy Sunday i’m cooking,
okra shrimp and crab I don’t have no smoke sausage i’m from New Orleans I love watching your cooks shows on TH-cam ♥️🌹♥️

Excellent! Thanks so much for leaving feedback I really appreciate it. Wow how you ended up with too much stock? As long as it came out good that's all that matters.
Charlie Charlie! Just like I can remember, OMG. My mom smiled at my attempt thank you very much!
You're welcome Tierra! That is good to hear that your mom enjoyed it. Thanks for leaving feedback!
Charlie Andrews hi Charlie! I’m whipping up again, do you have any suggestions for meat for people with shellfish allergies?
I think my TV is channeling in my brain...I been wanting smother okra for the last 3 days, I make it my on my own. This recipe is spot on technique is different, I also use chicken wings, I roast my okra to remove the (Rope) we don't call it slime my grandmother from Gibson Louisiana Terrebonne Parish grew okra. But don't get it twisted I can eat your to Charlie I Love Okra!
That's awesome and good to hear. I also have a different video on okra. The link is below. Thanks!
