Pan-Fried Okra
By Micki Brown
Place the corn flour/masa in a small bowl and whisk in the Cajun/Creole seasoning.
Place the beaten eggs in another small bowl
Place the all-purpose flour in a gallon size plastic bag
Place the coconut oil in a large skillet and heat over medium heat.
Place the sliced okra in the plastic bag with flour, then shake it until the okra is light coated in flour
Put the okra into the eggs, then coat with the corn flour, then place in the skillet
Pan-fry over medium heat, flipping them over frequently with a spatula - You may have to do it in more than one batch depending on the size of the skillet
Continue cooking until the breaded okra is a deep golden brown. It is important to cook them thoroughly, but not burnt, so that the okra slime disappears. Serve and enjoy!
Pan-Fried Okra is especially tasty with Ranch Dressing.
