Ingredients:
12 okras
(sliced into rings)
6 cups
water (more if necessary)
Salt (to
taste)
2 cups cornmeal
(sifted)
1 tbsp.
butter
Instructions:
Wash okras and cut off stems. Slice into rings and boil with half the
water and salt for about 10 minutes. Add the rest of the water and salt to the
sifted cornmeal and mix well. Remove saucepan from heat and stir in the
cornmeal mixture, stirring ingredients with a wooden spatula over medium heat.
When mixture becomes stiff smooth and breaks away from the saucepan cleanly at
the bottom then it’s finished. Put into a dish immediately and spread liberally
with butter.
