Default Best way to cook Okra?

Everytime I cook Okra it always turns out slimy. I bought some frozen at the store and boiled it like the instructions said and it was slimy. I may try frying it up next time but I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction.

try lightly oiling it and then breading it.. Follow it up with a little sizzling on the pan and you got some friend okra

Why don't you just "cook it properly" and eat it?
