Fried okra, front and center

After striking out at the grocery stores we frequent, Lara finally tracked down some okra at the farmer’s market in Arlington.

This called for a feast.

Lara makes the best fried okra on the planet. Hands down. Toss in some fresh hanover tomatoes, beans, grilled tuna and a nice cabernet sauvignon for a perfect summer meal.

This okra did not die in vain.

Okra recipe: the secret is corn meal. Most cooks use either all-flour or a mostly-flour and some-corn-meal for the breading. I use mostly corn meal with some flour. Plus fry in an iron skillet. And patience. Every good fry cook knows you musn’t pack ’em in.
