Is fried okra nice? What is a good corn meal substitute? 
So I have a bunch of fresh okra/ladyfingers my dad planted and Im bored of cooking them the 
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???

Baked Egyptian Okra (well it's called that in this German cookbook from the 70s):
Wash 750g okra, cut of the stem and half them.
30g butter + add the okra for 5min on mid heat. Put them aside & clean pan.
30g butter + diced onion. Add 500g ground beef & garlic. Wait until beef done.
Add ~80g of tomatoe paste (recipe says 120g, but I think that's too much) and then after a short while 250ml of beef stock. Salt & pepper and wait 10min on low heat.
Add 150g yoghurt.
Take a baking dish and 50% of the meat, then the okra and then the rest of the beef. pour ~125ml of beef stock over it.
Put into oven at 180°C for ~50min.
Eat with kritharaki/rice and have lemon juice ready.
