Whipped Cornmeal & Okra Recipe - Cooking Index
2 cups | 474ml | Water |
6 | Fresh - tender okra | |
1 cup | 62g / 2.2oz | White cornmeal |
1/2 teaspoon | 2.5ml | Salt |
1/2 cup | 99g / 3.5oz | Butter - cut into pieces |
Bring the water to a gentle boil in a 3-quart saucepan, add okra and cook for about 10 minutes. Remove the okra with a slotted spoon and set aside.
Raise the heat under the saucepan so the water boils briskly. Add the cornmeal in a thin, steady stream, stirring all the while to prevent lumping. Add the salt and okra; cook, stirring for 10 to 12 minutes.
Remove from heat and add the butter a piece at a time, stirring after each addition, until all the butter is incorporated. Keep stirring until this okra has practically disappeared and the cornmeal is light.
Correct seasoning and serve hot.
