I've found at seriously hot/fast saute produces the best non-gooey result using frozen pcs.
definitely one of the most under appreciated veggies - albeit definitely requires proper prep/cooking!
These were not frozen. I dipped the okra in milk and egg then put them in a bag with flour, salt and pepper. I started them in a hot skillet and they were not gooey, but probably would have browned more in a hotter skillet.
