INSTRUCTIONS

Some good things take time. (Oh, I sound like a cheap wine commercial.) In the case of okra I know of no way to get to this delicious vegetable except through slow and proper cooking. Every black cook agrees with me, I am sure. So, calm down and be prepared for okra that is wonderful and tasty. And no, it will not be "slippery." Cut the tops off the okra and cut into 1/2-inch slices. Mix the egg with 2 tablespoons water and toss with the okra. Add the cornmeal and salt and pepper. Mix well so that all pieces are coated. Pan-fry in a bit of oil over medium heat. Shake so that the pieces separate and brown evenly on both sides. You may have to do this in 2 batches. This dish must be cooked slowly and carefully so that the okra dries out a bit in the cooking. From . Downloaded from Glens MM Recipe Archive, G Internet.
