Yield serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 4

6 tablespoons olive oil
2 pounds okra, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces, stems trimmed
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup fine yellow cornmeal

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, preferably nonstick, heat 3 tablespoons of the oil over medium-high heat. Add the okra and stir to coat. Cover and cook until bright green, 12 to 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the cornmeal and stir to coat. Drizzle over the remaining 3 tablespoons of oil and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the okra is tender, browned, and crispy, about 15 minutes. Taste and adjust for seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
