I asked my husband is okra still a vegetable (technically a fruit as it has seeds) if you batter it with cornmeal and fry it? His reply......NO! It becomes candy!
After DH made French fries I tossed the pieces into the already hot oil.
Between the seeds and the frying I hope I do not suffer, but right now.
Sluggy and Nathalie will be proud of me. I did it! And it was delicious. (Spoken in Terri Hatcher on Seinfeld manner. They are real, and they are fantastic!). I sliced the okra. I soaked it in egg.
I dredged it in seasoned cornmeal
I am so proud of myself. So good. Very easy. If they have more okra next week I will buy it again!
Look at you! Congratulations, you're a Southerner! They look delicious, you should come here and cook some for my husband, lol. I hope your digestive system agrees with them. Are you allowed to eat fried foods?
ReplyDeleteMy definite off limits are raw veggies/fruit, seeds and nuts. But honestly, only salmon, hard boiled eggs and roasted to mush beets are my definitely won't bother me foods. I lived on raw veggies prior to Crohn's diagnosis. Getting better at trying new ways to cook veggies, but really miss my big salads.
DeleteI am proud of you(says Sluggy as she bestows an honorary Southern badge to Ms. Sandie)..... 8-)))
