SOUTHERN OKRA FRITTERS

Okra is a favorite vegetable in the South. It is good for gumbo, soups, stews and fried. We like it as fritters, too. I try to grow okra every year. It freezes well and I love putting it in vegetable soup in the winter months. This is my recipe for fritters.

2 cups okra, cut in round pieces (Can use fresh or frozen)

1 1/4 cups self-rising cornmeal

1/2 cup all purpose flour

1 egg

1/2 cup onion, finely chopped

1 1/2 cups buttermilk

Salt & Pepper, (Optional)

1 cup oil

In a large mixing bowl with a spoon mix together all ingredients except okra and oil. Fold in the okra. Heat the oil in a large skillet. Drop by spoonfuls into the hot oil. (I use a 1/4 cup measuring cup for each fritter). Fry on one side about 2 minutes or until good and crusty, turn and fry the other side. Enjoy !
