1.5 lbs okra, finger-sized 1 egg 2 Tbsp water 1 cup cornmeal oil for frying salt to taste pepper to taste
Cut off tops of okra & cut into 1/2" slices. Mix the egg and water and stir into okra. Add the cornmeal and salt. Saute over med-low heat in a bit of oil, stirring gently to separate. A fair amount of the cornmeal will come off while cooking; gentle stirring will keep more of the crust.
