We are harvesting okra like mad right now! When the okra plant is at its peak, pods can be harvested practically everyday because they set on and grow so quickly. I love fried okra, it is a farm favorite around here. Occasionally someone will mention that they don’t like okra because it is slimy. Do not fear; fried okra doesn’t have to be slimy. Try this iron skillet cooked, cornmeal-dredged fried okra.

Fried Okra

  • 1 lb fresh okra, no longer than 6″ and tender to cut
  • ½ cup yellow cornmeal
