INGREDIENTS
- 2 lb okra sliced
- 3/4 c cornmeal
- 1/2 c All purpose flour
- 1/2 t salt
- 1/4 c canola or beg oil
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350ยบ F.
Mix together okra, corn meal, flour, and salt in a large mixing bowl, making sure well-coated.
In the meantime, heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add okra to skillet once oil has reached the point where if a drop of water is added it will sizzle.
Allow okra to brown on one side, about 3 minutes, before gently stirring. Once both sides of okra have browned, about 3 more minutes, place into preheated oven. Cook until fork tender, about 10 minutes.
NOTES
When slicing okra for cooking, make sure to discard the stem end and the tip. These are too tough, in my opinion, for frying.
