Okra Fritters image

In the South, okra is every where. I threw together this recipe when trying to come up with something different. When I make this for the kids, I leave out the tomatoes and onion.

Time 25m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds fresh okra, sliced in 1/8 inch pieces
1 large tomato, diced
1 onion, diced
6 packets instant grits
2 eggs, lightly beaten
salt and black pepper to taste
½ cup oil for frying, or as needed

Steps:

  • Combine okra, tomato, and onion in a large bowl. Add the grits, eggs, salt, and pepper and blend together using your hands.
  • Heat oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Form patties 2 1/2 inches in diameter, about 1/2 the size of a hamburger. Place the fritter in the pan and cook until golden brown, about five minutes. Flip with a spatula and cook until browned on the other side, about five minutes more. Remove and drain on paper towels. Serve immediately.

These okra fritters were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra spices next time.

I'm allergic to okra, so I can't eat these fritters. But they look delicious!

I followed the recipe exactly, but my fritters didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These okra fritters were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I would have preferred them if they had been baked instead of fried.

I love okra fritters, and this recipe is one of my favorites. The fritters are always crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I also love the flavor of the batter.

These okra fritters were easy to make and turned out great! I followed the recipe exactly and they were perfect. I served them with a dipping sauce made of sour cream, mayonnaise, and chives.

I'm not usually a fan of okra, but these fritters were surprisingly delicious. The batter was light and fluffy, and the okra was cooked perfectly. I'll definitely be making these again.

These okra fritters were a hit at my last party! They were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the batter was perfectly seasoned. I'll definitely be making these again.
