--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1 1/4  pounds        ripe tomatoes
   1      pound         okra
   1      cup           diced onion
     1/4  cup           butter
   1      teaspoon      salt
     1/4  teaspoon      pepper

Cut stem from the tomatoes.  To peel, place tomatoes one at a time in
boiling water for 15 seconds; remove from water, and pull off the peel. 
Slice peeled tomatoes; set aside.  Trim stem from okra, and cut in
bite-sized pieces.  In a saucepan over medium heat, combine tomatoes,
okra, onion, butter, salt and pepper.  Bring mixture to a boil.  Reduce
heat, and simmer, uncovered, 30 to 40 minutes or until some of the liquid
has evaporated, leaving a thickened sauce.  Makes 6 servings.
