Being from Minnesota, I never had okra growing up, but after I moved south to Missouri, I found that I really loved it fried, even if it's kind of messy! Ingredients:
1 lb okra pods, stem ends cut off,sliced 1/4 thick |
salt |
cold water |
cornmeal |
salt and pepper |
oil |
Directions:
1. Put sliced okra in a bowl. 2. Sprinkle with salt, liberally. 3. Cover with very cold water. 4. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. 5. Drain, rinse, drain again. 6. Roll slices in seasoned cornmeal until well coated. 7. Fry in hot oil about 1/2 deep until browned and crisp. 8. Drain on paper towels, serve hot. |
