I have some fresh okra that needs to be cooked. I love fried okra! I hate boiled okra! Anybody got any recipes to fry or even bake the okra? Anyway that will make it crunchy? I have some whole wheat flour? Can I batter it in that?

    here's another one:
    Just toss Okra in corn meal, preheat an oven to 500 degrees, Pam a baking sheet, put down the okra, pam the Okra, and cook it for about 20 minutes.

    I haven't tried any of them but I probably will soon! I LOVE fried okra!
