ingredients

1 1/2 pound okra, finger-sized
1 egg
2 tablespoons water
1 cup cornmeal
oil, for frying
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste

directions

Cut off tops of okra and cut into 1/2" slices. Mix the egg and water and stir into okra. Add the cornmeal and salt.

Saute over med-low heat in a bit of oil, stirring gently to separate. A fair amount of the cornmeal will come off while cooking; gentle stirring will keep more of the crust.
