DRY FRIED OKRA
Steps:
- Rinse the whole okra pods under cold water, drain, pat dry, trim and cut into 1/4-inch pieces. Set aside.
- Place the cornmeal into a sealable ziptop bag. Add the okra and shake to coat thoroughly. Return the okra to a dry colander and shake off excess cornmeal.
- Add enough vegetable oil to a 12-inch stainless steel saute pan in order to completely cover the bottom of the pan. Place over medium-high heat and bring the oil to 370 degrees F. Add the okra and fry until golden brown on 1 side, approximately 5 to 6 minutes. Stirring occasionally, continue cooking until okra is golden brown on all sides, approximately 5 to 6 minutes longer. Remove the okra from the pan with a slotted spoon or spatula to a cooling rack set over a newspaper-lined sheet pan. Season, to taste, with salt and allow to cool for 1 to 2 minutes before serving.

Golden brown with a little fresh green showing through, this fried okra recipe is crunchy and addicting! My sons like to dip them in ketchup. -Pam Duncan, Summers, Arkansas

Steps:
- In a large bowl, whisk together egg and milk. Place bread crumbs in a second large bowl. Heat oil in a heavy 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until oil is hot enough to toast a bread crumb in 30 seconds.
- Toss half the okra in the egg mixture until thoroughly coated (use your hands or, if you must, a spoon). Pick up large handfuls (or slotted spoonfuls) of the okra pieces, letting the excess liquid drip back into the bowl. Transfer okra to the bowl with bread crumbs and toss until coated.
- Add okra to hot oil and cook until well browned, about 5 minutes. Remove okra with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining okra. Season with salt and pepper and serve hot.

SIMPLE FRIED OKRA
With only a few ingredients and about 10 minutes, you can enjoy light, crispy okra anytime. I prefer okra with a light flour coating versus corn meal. I want to taste the okra -- not the breading! Fried okra, a country staple, is best served hot alongside thick-sliced summer tomatoes.

FRIED OKRA
I am posting this in tribute to the hours I spent as a child picking okra in my grandparent's garden. I never knew fried okra was a vegetable growing up, I thought it was a special treat only available in the summertime. Frozen okra was thrown into gumbo, but when it was fresh, we usually fried it. (Unless Daddy requested "stewed" okra.....his favorite, not ours!) I can't believe this version isn't on food.com, but I couldn't find it. Here's to a wonderful childhood!

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet (may use sauce pan, but you'll have to cook in more batches) to 350 degrees F.
- In a plastic bag, combine cornmeal, flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Shake it up to mix it up thoroughly.
- Place cut up okra in a bowl, and pour the buttermilk over it. Toss it so that each piece is coated with buttermilk.
- Add the okra to the bag with the cornmeal mixture in it, and shake it well to coat.
- Carefully add the okra to the hot oil, and cook until golden brown. You may need to cook it in batches, depending on the size of your skillet or pan.
- Remove from oil, and drain on paper towels. Test a piece to check and see if you need to add more salt. Do so if needed. Serve immediately and enjoy!
