Fried Okra Deluxe, Okra, Green Tomatoes, Vidalia Onions & Pepper Fried Okra Gumbo

Tonight I Fried Okra, Green Tomatoes, Vidalia Onion, & Green Peppers and Boy was it good! I personally think that next time I will leave out the cornmeal because it tends to make the batter not cling as well. I love the flavor of buttermilk and self rising flour fried until crispy on my vegetables. Scroll down for the recipe!

DO YOU REMEMBER that good old southern cooking? When I was growing up, my granny was my favorite cook. My mama was an amazing cook as well, but there was just something about being in granny’s kitchen.
I have made it so easy for you to learn how to cook like my granny and mama did with cooking tutorials for each and every recipe in our cookbooks. You can see how to order these by visiting us on our website. Oh and no difficult to find or crazy ingredients! Just simple ingredients and really good food.
I am a southern girl born in raised in Collard Valley in Polk County Georgia. We went to church on Sunday, school during the week, the grocery store on Friday’s and that was our life. No vacations, no camping, just plain old southern country people
NOW FOR THIS FAMILY RECIPE:
FRIED OKRA DELUXE
1 LB FRESH OKRA
1 SMALL VIDALIA ONION ( SLICED)
1 LARGE GREEN TOMATO (CHOPPED)
1 SIDE OF BELL PEPPER (SLICED)
1/8 CUP WHOLE BUTTERMILK
1.5 CUPS SELF-RISING FLOUR
SALT & PEPPER
Wash okra and snip off base and tip (if desired) with a knife. Cut okra in 1/4-inch-thick pieces. Place in a medium bowl with other vegetables. Pour buttermilk on it and mix it well with your hands.
Put ½ cup self-rising flour in bottom of a pie plate. Add half of okra. Salt and pepper generously. Using a sifter to coat the okra well with self-rising flour. Pour in remaining okra and repeat by adding salt, pepper, and flour.
IRON SKILLET, WOK, OR LARGE SKILLET
SHORTENING
Put enough shortening in skillet to be about 1” deep after melting. Oil must be HOT. Put a breaded piece of okra in oil and once it floats and sizzles WELL, your grease is hot and ready! It takes a good 20-30 minutes to fry up okra. DO NOT RUSH. Flip a maximum of three times. Let okra sit in hot grease until it is golden brown before turning it over. Add more shortening after turning once. You may have to rotate okra from edges to middle, so all will brown. Fry until it is golden brown. Take out with large slotted spoon and place on a paper towel-covered platter/plate.
NOTE: Fry frozen okra the same way. Let it sit out at room temperature for 4 hours before adding buttermilk. Cut in smaller pieces while partially frozen if desired.
