π Fried Okra Without Cornmeal (Air Fryer and Freezing Instructions!)
|
Growing up in Texas, fried okra was an absolute staple in every home and every restaurant we ever visited during my childhood. My mom would often make fried okra from scratch to go alongside chicken fried steak and mashed potatoes. Mmmm, the good olβ days. When my grandfather moved in with us 30 years ago and started a garden, he grew so much okra we could barely pick it fast enough! And of course, when we started our own garden 10 years ago, I knew that okra was going to be one of the first things we would plant. It goes very well here, which is good, because we love okra! Fry it fresh or bread and freeze a big batch for later. Either way, you are going to love it! π
Psst... I'm also including the instructions for air frying this okra! More Classic Southern Recipes to Enjoy
