CORNMEAL FRIED OKRA
My grandma used to make us fried okra a lot when I was a child and I loved it. This version comes from the "Soul and Spice" cookbook. My family likes to eat the fried okra with ranch dressing or ketchup but it is equally good on its own.

- Mix the yogurt and milk. Put the okra cylinders into the yogurt/milk mixture and cover them. Leave them in the mixture for 5 minutes.
- Gently move the okra pieces to the cornmeal and spoon the cornmeal over them until they are completely covered. Using the spoon (not your hands as the yogurt/milk mixture topped with cornmeal is soft and will dislodge off the okra if you handle it too much), put the okra pieces on a plate in a single layer.
- Put 2 layers of paper towels on the second plate and put it next to the stove. Remember my recent fire misadventure. Keep the paper towels far enough away from flame that they can’t catch on fire!)
