I miss fried okra

[Amelia]

Radioman's boiled peanuts thread is making me hungry for some southern cooking.

I'm stuck up here in Wisconsin. Moo.

Go to the Wisconsin state fair, they have deep fried butter sticks.........

 

[Mr. H.]

You could probably find frozen sliced okra at the store. Then wing it.

You could always grow you a little patch of it. That and turnip greens too!

Fried okra, black eyed peas,gumbo, the gifts of the south

My favorite place to get fried okra was at Lambert's Cafe...one of the few things I miss from my years living near the Ozarks. Although, they have a location in Alabama...I should see how far it is from Tampa.

Don't forget the HOT throwed rolls.

When I first moved here, while we were just settling in, we went out to eat several times and I found everything was cooked in butter.

Even stir fry was cooked in butter!

Finally we went to a pizza place and I thought great! Tomato sauce! Red! Not yellow! Yea!!!!!

So I ordered my pizza and guess what. Yes. Butter sauce!



Culture shock.

Can you get fried cheese?

 

[Iridescence]

I love okra *hearts* but I buy it and fix it however I want it...

 

[Amelia]

I'm not much of a cook. I don't know if it's available here in WI. Just seems to me that the further north I get the less often I see okra.

Oh well. Maybe I"ll think to look for it the next time I'm in the freezer section. Or maybe I'll forget my craving by then.

It is tough to beat fried mushrooms.

Amen!! There was this place when I lived in Raleigh, called Houlihan's, and they had amazing herb cream cheese stuffed fried mushrooms with a delicious horseradish dipping sauce.

What about deep fried ice cream Schwetty balls?

It sounds like sweaty balls. There was a place in Wake Forest, NC, that served fried spaghetti balls...only place I've ever seen them.
