:marseyquestion: Is fried okra nice? What is a good corn meal substitute? :marseysouthernbelle1:

So I have a bunch of fresh okra/ladyfingers my dad planted and Im bored of cooking them the :marseychingchong: way so I googled a bit for other methods and it seems like theres probably like only frying it

my heart is telling me Seems interesting enough and Im open to trying it but Ive never heard of okra being fried like this so I have to wonder if its worth it??? Should I fry them whole or cut them totally into smaller pieces???

Also I have a feeling I cant find corn meal here so what would be a good substitute??? Ive seen this kentucky seasoned flour in the supermarkets so Im wondering if its really a thing in burgerland and if its a good substitute for corn meal???

If you can find some polenta, which is an Italian food, and grind it a little bit finer, it's a great substitute for corn meal. They're literally the same thing, but different consistencies. Also, grits are the same thing, but yet another consistency. Grits are more of a southern burgerland thing.

Also, okra should be cut into rounds before battering and frying.

Frick. I already ate, but now I want some okra.
