1 pound of okra
1-1/2 cups buttermilk
1 egg
2 sleeves of saltine crackers, crushed fine to a meal
2 cups of flour
Couple pinches of salt
Couple dashes of Slap Ya Mama Cajun seasoning
Deep fryer and fresh canola oil
Preheat the fryer to 375 degrees, or if using a skillet heat the oil.
Cut the okra either into 1/2 inch slices or lengthwise; set aside. Whisk together the buttermilk and egg; set aside. In a separate bowl, combine the cracker meal with the flour, salt and Cajun seasoning.
Dip the okra into the buttermilk and then dredge in the flour mixture. Fry in batches for 3 or 4 minutes, or just until golden brown; don't overcrowd! Sprinkle with additional salt if desired; serve hot.
