1 lb of okra (fresh or frozen, thawed)
salt and pepper
1 Tbsp buttermilk
1 cup corn meal
1/2 cup flour
Cut up okra in small bite size pieces. In a bowl add okra, salt and pepper, buttermilk mix together and then add corn meal, flour and salt/pepper. You want the okra to separate individually not clumped together.
Mix gently together. Heat 1-2 inches of oil in a heavy pan on high. With hands jiggle between your fingers and when pan is very hot add okra.( the hotter the oil it won't hold onto too much oil and be too oily) May need to fry in batches. Place a paper towel in a serving bowl to absorb excess oil.
