Crispy okra served over tomatoes, onion and basil with a fresh vinaigrette.
INSTRUCTIONS
In a small bowl, soak the okra slices in the buttermilk.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, baking powder, salt, sugar, chili powder, paprika and pepper.
In small batches, dredge the okra in the cornmeal mixture and place on a plate that has a little cornmeal mixture covering the bottom of the plate so that the okra does not stick to it.
In a small pot, heat the oil to 375 degrees F. Fry the okra in small batches until golden brown on all sides, about 3-4 minutes. Place on dry paper towels and sprinkle with a little salt while still hot.
In a small bowl, whisk together all the vinaigrette ingredients except the oil. While whisking, drizzle in the oil slowly and whisk until the vinaigrette is well combined.
Toss together the tomatoes, red onion, fresh basil and half of the vinaigrette.
Place in a serving dish, top with the fried okra, drizzle over a little vinaigrette and serve immediately.
