Things You'll Need:
- Approx 4 cups of sliced okra (fresh)
- Large spoon
- Large bowl
- 1/4 Cup of flour (any kind)
- Small bowl
- 1 egg
- 1 1/2 cups of bread crumbs
- Vegetable oil
- Salt
- Medium non-stick frying pan
-
Step 1
First, you will need to wash and slice your okra in 1/2 inch pieces. Put them in a bowl and add a little salt if desired. Toss them around to mix the salt in them. Add about 1 inch of vegetable oil into your frying pan and set aside until ready to fry your okra.
-
Step 2
Next add the flour to the okra little by little while mixing with a large spoon. Try to spread the flour good on the okra by tossing the okra with the spoon in the bowl to mix it.
-
Step 3
Then, you will need to beat the egg lightly in a bowl with a fork, pour it on the okra and mix with a large spoon. Mix only long enough to get the egg on all of the okra.
-
Step 4
Now add 1 1/2 cups of bread crumbs to the okra and mix with a large spoon. Heat your vegetable oil until it is hot enough to fry the okra-375 degrees. When grease is hot, spoon the okra in and let it cook until golden brown. Remove and place on a plate with a paper towel to soak up the grease.

on 8/12/2009 I love fried okra, but could never quite get the crispiness I felt it should have. I'll try this recipe.
Thanks 5*R
