Ingredients

6 ears of fresh sweet corn, husked and cut from the cob
1 cup cup fresh lima beans
1/2 cup okra, sliced
1/2 cup unsalted butter
water
kosher salt and fresh ground pepper
green onions, chopped, optional
1 teaspoon garlic, minced

Directions

1

Place a 3 1/2 quart pot over medium heat. Add the butter and gently melt it.
2

When the butter is close to being all liquid add the okra and gently saute it without browning but long enough to cook out the okra slime. Season the okra with a pinch of salt and pepper. Add the garlic and saute until fragrant.
3

Add 1 cup of water to the pan. Bring it to a boil then add the corn and lima beans. There should be enough liquid to almost cover the vegetables. If not add a bit more water. Season with salt and pepper.
4

Once the corn and beans are cooked through check the seasoning again. Adjust and serve.
