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???

I actually know a lot of okra dishes, message me tomorrow when I'm awake. I know both the Filipino and southern American varieties... Pakbet, diningding, various fried varieties, soups like sinigang etc

Messed up how? Like others have said chop it up and dip it in egg whites before the batter if it's an issue of breading falling off.

it's the breading itself, i couldn't find corn meal here so i used some italian breading thing as a substitute and it turned out pretty bland
but still salvageable with some salt
i think it's just me because i might have been expecting it to taste like nuggets looking at how some recipes describe it lol

You can get an air fryer on lazada for cheap, comes out tasting just as good without all the oil getting soaked in. I resisted getting one thinking it was mostly a meme but honestly it's been pretty great for chicken, tofu and bananas in particular.
