DOWN HOME OKRA FRITTERS
My family loves these fritters with Chili, Red beans and rice, or just as a snack with sour cream. They eat them up as fast as I can fry them..lol! Sometimes I make them spicier,add fresh corn, cayenne pepper, etc... just play with the recipe..you can't go wrong.. Enjoy...:)) My Photos

Steps:
- 1. In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, baking powder, and sea salt.
- 2. Combine the egg and water in another bowl.
- 3. Pour the water and egg into the cornmeal, stir until smooth.
- 4. Add the remaining ingredients. Mix till well distributed. ( Batter should be thick, wet, not dry.)
- 5. In a skillet, ( I use my cast iron ) heat oil on medium. For larger fritters, measure out about 1/4 cup of batter. Pour into the hot oil. Fry the cakes until the bottoms are brown and bubbles form on the tops and edges. About 3 minutes on each side. ( Add more oil as needed as you fry your fritters )
- 6. Drain on paper towels.
- 7. Serve with your favorite condiments. They go well with sour cream and salsa. Enjoy!!!

santiago_erika@hotmail.comThese fritters were a little too greasy for my liking. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.
