GRANDMA'S FRIED OKRA AND POTATOES
The cornmeal adds a nice texture to these. This dish doesn't last more than a few minutes at my house. It's great!

Steps:
- Wash okra and cut off stem ends. Cut in about ½-inch pieces. Peel potatoes and chop into ½-inch dice. Put okra and potatoes in large bowl. Add chopped onion to mixture. Sprinkle cornmeal, salt and pepper over mixture. Stir until cornmeal is evenly distributed throughout mixture.
- Heat drippings or oil in large skillet over medium heat (oil should be hot, but not smoking hot). Carefully spoon okra/potato mixture into hot oil. Fry, turning mixture occasionally, until potatoes are done and mixture is nicely browned, about 10 to 12 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Makes enough for 4 or 5 hungry people.

COMFORTING OVEN-FRIED OKRA, SQUASH, AND ONION
What a great way to "fry" some veggies. I loved the combination of veggies and did add the potatoes. The seasonings enhance the flavor of the fresh veggies and the cornmeal/flour coating is great. Can't wait to make this again!

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- 2. Be sure to use the freshest ingredients. Add each chopped vegetable ingredient into bowl for mixing.
- 3. Salt, garlic powder, and pepper vegetables and stir. Throw in flour on top of vegetables, then corn meal.
- 4. If the vegetables aren't sufficiently covered upon stirring, you may add more flour one tablespoon at a time until it's all covered.
- 5. Place aluminum foil, shiny side up, in a sheet pan. Spray with Pam cooking spray. Remove vegetable mixture from bowl with hands and spread onto the foil in a thin layer. If there is any loose flour in the bowl, dump it into the trash instead of onto the pan.
- 6. Spray the top of the breaded vegetables with Pam.
- 7. Place into the preheated oven and bake at 400 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until brown. I stir them around about 10 minutes before they finish cooking to crispen them up better on all sides.
- 8. Remove from oven and serve immediately. This is good fried on the stove top also, but if you are like my family, you may be cutting back on fried foods. This is a good way to eat nice comfort foods without consuming large amounts of unhealthy fats.
SQUASH, POTATOES AND ONIONS- OH MY!
A wonderful side dish that I make as soon as the yellow squash start coming in. When I first started making this about 30 years ago, I used the bacon grease. I found I like the margarine better and I like the squash to cook so that you have a few browned pieces in. Oooohh, that gives it so much flavor!

OVEN FRIED OKRA AND POTATOES
One of our summer favorites is fried okra. Years ago a friend told me to add chopped potatoes to okra when frying it, especially if I didn't have enough okra to fry for the number of people I'm cooking for, because the potatoes stretched the dish. Now I just add it because it's good. Sometimes, I substitute chopped green tomatoes for the potatoes.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 - 450 degrees. Put oil in cast iron skillet and heat in oven enough for okra to sizzle. Meanwhile, slice okra into bite-sized pieces. Chop potatoes and add to okra. Sprinkle meal on potatoes and okra to coat. Add salt and pepper, to your taste. Let okra/potatoes set for a few minutes. Some moisture that comes from the veggies will help the meal adhere to the okra/potatoes. Stir a couple of times to better coat. Add okra/potatoes to hot oil, cook in oven until tender and crispy, about 20 minutes. Toward the end of cooking and the okra and potatoes are getting tender, if okra/potatoes are not browned and crispy enough for you, turn up heat and cook for a few more minutes, not long or it will burn. With a slotted spoon, remove okra from skillet and drain on paper towels. Immediately season with salt and pepper.
ARKANSAS FRIED VEGGIE SKILLET
This recipe was given to me by my mother-in-law; it is so good! You can add anything else you want and it only makes it better. I recommend everyone at least give it a try! You can even add some bacon pieces. Serve with fried deer meat. You can use olive oil or vegetable oil instead of the bacon grease, if desired.

FRIED YELLOW SQUASH WITH POTATOES AND ONIONS
My boyfriend suggested I add some squash to the fried potatoes as a way to use up the extra squash. It tastes really good as a side dish to pork or chicken.

BLONDIE'S~FRIED SQUASH, OKRA & POTATOES
I ate this at a friend's house several years ago, and I've been making it ever since. The ratios of veggies can be how ever you like them. Mine changes depending what I have on hand. They make a great side for any Southern entree. In season serve some ripe thick-sliced tomatoes on the side...YUMMMMY!
