Okra Green Tomato Fritters

ingredients:
• 1/2 pound of okra, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
• 1 large green tomato, diced
• 1/2 onion, finely diced
• 1 cup of self-rising cornmeal
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon of Cajun seasoning
• 1 large egg
• 1/2 cup buttermilk
• 3-4 dashes of hot sauce
• Vegetable oil for frying

Directions:
Start by washing the okra and green tomatoes thoroughly. Cut okra into 1/2-inch pieces and dice the green tomatoes into small chunks. This size ensures even cooking and a good balance of flavors in each fritter.

Making the Batter
In a large bowl, mix the cornmeal, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and Cajun seasoning. Set aside. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, hot sauce, and buttermilk together until smooth. Add chopped okra and diced green tomatoes until flour/cornmeal mixture. Coat well. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The batter should be thick enough to hold the vegetables together but still easy to scoop.

Frying the Fritters
Heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat. To test if the oil is ready, drop a small amount of batter into the oil; it should sizzle immediately. Carefully spoon the batter with vegetables into the hot oil, forming small patties about 2-3 inches wide.

Fry the fritters for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to transfer them to a wire rack to drain excess oil.

Serve with a spicy Remoulade  or spicy Ranch
