1 bag frozen cut okra
vegetable oil
¼ cup cornmeal
(optional: salt to taste)
Thaw out the frozen okra by putting it in a bowl and running warm water over it a few times. Drain it thoroughly. Heat some oil in a frying pan on medium-high and prepare a bowl with the cornmeal.
Dip the drained okra into the cornmeal to bread it, then put it in the pan. Let it fry for a while until it gets golden brown, flipping it over to make sure it's evenly fried. My mom says each okra piece should be turned individually with a fork for the best flavor, but when I'm feeling lazy I just turn it with a spatula and it still tastes pretty good to me.
Add more oil as necessary while the okra is frying. When it's crispy and golden brown, it's good to go. It's yummy just like that, but you can also add a little salt for a last touch.
