A delightful twist on a classic Southern favorite, this recipe combines crispy fried okra with a tangy and spicy dipping sauce.
Preheat the oil in a skillet to 350°F.
Use a thermometer to ensure the oil reaches the correct temperature for optimal frying.
Combine the cornmeal, flour, Cajun spice, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
Mix thoroughly to ensure an even distribution of spices.
Dip the okra pieces into the buttermilk, then coat them in the cornmeal mixture.
Shake off excess coating to prevent clumping.
Fry the coated okra in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per batch.
Avoid overcrowding the skillet to maintain the oil temperature.
Mix mayonnaise, hot sauce, and garlic powder in a bowl to make the dipping sauce.
Adjust the hot sauce quantity to suit your spice preference.
Serve the fried okra hot with the dipping sauce on the side.
Garnish with a sprinkle of Cajun spice for added flavor.
