Fried Okra

Fried okra in a bowl next to a bag of salt at a garden center near me.

Ingredients:

  • 10 pods okra, sliced in 1/4 inch pieces
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ cup vegetable oil

Instructions:

  1. In a small bowl, soak okra in egg for 5 to 10 minutes. In a medium bowl, combine cornmeal, salt, and pepper.
  2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Dredge okra in the cornmeal mixture, coating evenly. Carefully place okra in hot oil; stir continuously. Reduce heat to medium when okra first starts to brown, and cook until golden. Drain on paper towels.

Yield:
4 servings
