Ingredients

  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • 2 cups chopped onion
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 32 ounces canned crushed tomatoes
  • 1 pound chopped okra
  • ½ teaspoon ground paprika
  • ½ teaspoon dried basil
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 (4 ounce) packet saltine crackers
  • ¼ cup butter, softened
  • 1 (8.5 ounce) package cornbread mix (such as Jiffy®)
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1 large egg

Directions

Step 1
Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat; stir in onion. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add tomatoes, okra, paprika, basil, salt, and pepper; cook down until thickened, about 30 minutes.

Step 2
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 3
Crush saltines to crumbs in a large bowl; add softened butter and mix to combine. Press into the bottom of a casserole dish.

Step 4
Mix cornbread mix, milk, and egg in another bowl until combined; batter will be slightly lumpy.

Step 5
Put stewed vegetables in the casserole dish on top of the cracker crust. Pour cornbread batter on top.

Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven until cornbread topping is golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
