Ingredients:
1 -1 1/2 pounds okra, caps cut off and sliced 1 cup flour 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper 1 egg 1/4 cup milk Vegetable oil Directions: In a pie plate or paper lunch bag, mix together flour, salt and pepper. In a small bowl, whisk together egg and milk. Working in several batches, place okra in egg mixture and coat well. Transfer to pie plate or paper bag and coat with flour. Pour about 1 inch Vegetable oil in a large cast iron skillet or Dutch oven. Heat oil until about 375 degrees. Place a single layer of okra in the oil. Cook until golden brown on bottom and use a spoon to flip over. Try to flip over a few at a time or it will take a long time to work your way through all of them and a few pieces may burn by the time you get to them. Once golden brown on both sides, use a slotted spoon to remove okra to a plate lined with paper towels. Sprinkle okra with some salt as soon as you remove it from the oil. Add more oil to the pan and fry remaining okra. Serve warm. https://spicysouthernkitchen.com/fried-okra/#wprm-recipe-container-15169 Ingredients:

4 quarts Chicken Stock 1 cup vegetable oil1 cup all-purpose flour 3 medium onions, chopped 2 ribs celery, finely chopped 3 tablespoons minced garlic 1 green bell pepper, seeded and finely chopped 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, plus more to taste 1 1/2 pounds andouille sausage, cut into 1⁄3-inch-thick rounds 1 1/2 lb cooked chicken 3/4 lb thawed or fresh okra 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, plus more to taste 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1 bay leaf 1 bunch green onions, thinly sliced 1/3 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley Cooked white rice, for serving Louisiana hot sauce, for serving Directions With the oil and flour, make a roux the color of milk chocolate Immediately add the onions, celery, garlic, bell pepper, cayenne, and sausage, and cook, stirring, until the vegetables are softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Add 3 quarts broth to the roux mixture along with the salt, black pepper, and bay leaf, and bring to a gentle simmer. Continue to simmer, skimming any foam or excess oil that comes to the top, until the sauce is flavorful and thickened to the desired consistency, and any trace of floury taste is gone, about 2 hours. Add the chicken, green onions, okra, and parsley to the gumbo and continue to simmer about 30 minutes longer. Don’t stir too much or the chicken will fall apart into shreds. Adjust the thickness, if necessary, by adding more broth. Adjust the seasoning with salt and cayenne as needed. Serve the gumbo in shallow bowls over hot white rice. Have the hot sauce at the table for guests to use to their liking. Note: In Louisiana, everyone has his or her own preference when it comes to gumbo thickness. This one is about middle of the road, which is the way I prefer it—not too brothy and not too thick. It is easy to adjust the thickness by using less broth for a thicker gumbo and/or adding more for a thinner consistency. https://www.emerils.com/129273/chicken-and-andouille-gumbo |
