Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds boiling potatoes (preferably yellow-fleshed), quartered lengthwise and cut crosswise into 3/4-inch pieces
1/2 pound okra, trimmed and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick rounds
1/2 cup cornmeal
vegetable oil for deep-frying
1 1/2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons honey
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tomato, seeded and chopped coarse

Steps:

  • In a steamer set over boiling water steam the potatoes, covered, for 10 to 12 minutes, or until they are just tender, transfer them to a bowl, and let them cool to room temperature. In another bowl toss the okra with the cornmeal and salt and pepper to taste, transfer the mixture to a sieve, and shake off the excess cornmeal. In a deep skillet heat 1 inch of the oil to 375°F., in it fry the okra, stirring, for 2 minutes, or until it is golden, and transfer it to paper towels to drain. In a small bowl whisk together the vinegar, the honey, the mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon water, and salt and pepper to taste. Add the dressing to the potatoes with the okra and the tomato and combine the salad well.

The okra was a bit too greasy for my taste, but the potato salad was excellent.

The okra was perfectly fried - crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The potato salad was also delicious, with a tangy, creamy dressing.

This recipe was a hit at my last potluck! Everyone raved about the crispy okra and creamy potato salad. I'll definitely be making it again.
