Join the discussionI’d like to make this recipe, but that seems like a lot of oil!?! Half a cup?? I’ve never seen a recipe call or that much, just wanting to make sure thats right!
It is a lot, but it’s correct. Feel free to substitute butter, as well. I’ve done that a few times and it is also delicious!
Made this for dinner tonight and it was EXCELLENT. My husband kept saying he thought it was a restaurant-quality dish! Really simple and tasty for a cold night’s dinner. Yum.
Thank you, Brandi! I’m so glad you and your husband enjoyed it!
Our spring planting of root vegetables was ready to pick, so I decided to give this a try. It was super easy to make and tasted amazing! We hadn’t tried okra before – it’s not too common in rural Wisconsin so we had to buy it frozen. Thanks for the opportunity to discover a tasty new food!
we have had this several times and really liked it, even my 2 young boys ate it up! personally, i added some beans to it to make it higher in protein and used some alternative flour to make it gluten free.
I’m wondering if by “Cajun spice” you mean Cajun pepper? Also you say to begin on “medium high” and then to lower temp to “medium high”. ???
Jen,Cajun spice is the same as cajun seasoning. Thank you for pointing out the “medium high” mistake. We will get that fixed!
