#FrugalGramma- I am not expert at okra. Last night I stirred some plain yogurt into the sliced okra, then coated with cornmeal. (Seemed like a good sub for buttermilk?) It was OK, I am still learning how to get the pan and oil hot before adding food. Or you could make fritters- add some diced green tomatoes or zucchini if you don't have enough okra? 3 plants isn't a lot. I have made a mixed "summer vegetable" dish using fresh tomato, corn, a little okra, peppers, onion, whatever you have.
Pretty sure my friend also said just fry the okra in olive oil, get the oil good and hot so it cooks quickly, then it wouldn't get slimy.
I roasted a pan of tomatillos and made salsa, but it's not real tasty, don't know what's lacking. I added diced tomatoes and red onion after dinner tonight, maybe that'll perk it up tomorrow.
