Ingredients
- 12 pods of okra sliced into 1/2 inch pieces
- 2 eggs beaten
- ⅔ cup cornmeal
- ⅓ cup flour
- 1 ½ tbsp granulated sugar
- 1/8-1/4 tsp ground cayenne pepper
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp ground black pepper
- ½ to 1 cup vegetable oil
For the Buffalo sauce
- ¼ cup hot sauce
- ¼ cup cold unsalted butter (1/2 stick)
- ½ tbsp vinegar
- 2 dashes of Worcestershire sauce up to 3 dashes
- ⅛ tsp ground cayenne pepper
- salt to taste
Instructions
- In a small bowl, soak the okra in the beaten egg for 5 to 10 minutes. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.
- While the okra slices are soaking, prepare the Buffalo sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the hot sauce, butter, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, & cayenne pepper. Heat over medium heat stirring often until the butter has melted. Whisk until smooth. Season with salt to taste, & then set aside.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. (I fried the okra in a 12-inch cast iron skillet & used about 1 cup of oil.) Dredge the okra slices in the cornmeal mixture, coating evenly. Carefully place the okra in hot oil; stir continuously. Reduce heat to medium when okra first starts to brown, and cook until golden. Drain on paper towels. Then immediately toss the fried okra in the Buffalo sauce.
- Serve immediately with celery, blue cheese, & Ranch dressing, if desired.
- Enjoy!
