Okra Fritters

I love fried okra but I make such a mess when I make it and it doesn't taste as good as the frozen prebattered that you can buy in the store.  So when I saw this recipe I just had to try it and see if it was as good as regular fried okra.

The recipe has onions in it so it can't be bad.

Start with 1/2 cup all purpose flour

Salt and pepper.  Add more than you think you should.  I wish I had put more in mine.

Add 1/2 a chopped small onion.

Chop two cups okra.  Do this at the last minute because it gets that slimy stuff when it is cut.

one egg

Got carried away and didn't take a picture of the 1/4 cup buttermilk. Mix well.

Heat oil in a skillet.  Drop by tablespoonful into the hot oil.

Brown good on both sides and then drain on paper towels.
