one cup chopped onion
salt and pepper to taste
2 large eggs
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon baking powder
pinch garlic powder
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup cornmeal
1 teaspoon paprika
Red pepper flakes- optional
Combine okra, onion, all spices, water and egg. mix well.
In a separate bowl mix flour, baking powder, and cornmeal.
Add this to the okra mixture and mix all together well.
Drop about 1/4 cup portions into about 1/2 hot oil in frying pan. Fry over medium heat until well browned on both sides. Take up on paper towels
(My tip: replace a bit of the okra with diced green tomatoes)
