Ingredients:

Serving

1 lb fresh okra, sliced (it needs to be fresh for best results)
2 cups cornmeal
1 tbsp seasoning salt

Directions:

Mix your cornmeal and salt well in a gallon sized Ziploc bag.
Add okra, about 1 1/2 cups at a time.
Close bag and shake to cover okra completely with cornmeal mixture.
Fry in a cast iron skillet in vegetable or corn oil (I like corn oil best) until okra floats and turns a light brown.
Watch this carefully as once it begins to brown, it does so very quickly.
Repeat process until all okra is fried.
