Awesome! Thank you for sharing your Mom’s recipe. I’ve never tried Okra but will see if I can find some. One thing missing….a big round of applause for your Mom!
My Mom is no longer with me but I grew up loving her fried okra cooked pretty much the same as in this video. This has inspired me to try it myself. Thanks for that!
One of my favorite things growing up was “corn and okra”. My granny fried the okra like this. We put some fried okra on our plate and then spooned the creamed corn on top of the okra and ate it together. It was delicious!
Thank you Scott's Mom!!! My mom would make fried okra, and I loved it, but we had a small kitchen, and not enough room for two, I always wondered how she got the cornmeal to stick, and she'd passed before I was brave enough to try it, and it didn't turn out too well. I will try it again!
Hey from Tampa-St. Pete. Yep, none of that SWEET 'Yankee Corn Meal'! Uncle Scott, Okra is a hard sell... but I have to admit, that looked good! You've never steered me wrong so far...so dang it, I'm just going to try it! I couldn't help but notice that corn bread, man that is some good eating! Thanks for bringing us along and introducing us to your mom!
Great advice about cooking w Mom. Also, if you find the slimy feel of okra unappealing, power through and give this recipe a try. You’ll be glad you did.
Great video...but I HATE okra...sorry Scott. I realize it's one of your favorites...but I've tried it every way possible and just can't find what makes y'all love it so much...BTW, I'm from Dothan AL, so I can't blame it on "not having it cooked right"...LOL! Keep making the great videos.
This is not pertinent to this video but I would like to know if you can use the oil from the first seasoning of a Mineral B pan to season a second Mineral B pan? Thank you! P.S. I did not grow up in the south but my grandparents are from the Florida panhandle and cooked fried okra all the time. One of my favorite vegetables.
Thanks Scott looks like a great southern meal!, my moms from NC ..my grandma never cooked fried okra but I’ve had it before and want to try frying it at home , I’ve read that if buying fresh try to buy the smaller pods as supposedly they aren’t as slimy 🙄 have you come across this as being true at all?
I have been out west 20 years or so and I don't think I have seen fresh okra one time in a supermarket out here, so I don't know on the smaller vs. larger. I tried to grow some on my back deck last summer but the stinking squash bugs showed up and tore it all up.
Time to switch to pastured organic lard, you just have to go back in time a little farther to find it. These vegetable oils are a major hidden cause of our health problems, they are a recent invention and we'd all have been better off if that invention never came to pass. Olive oil becomes unhealthy at these temperatures too. Lard is wonderful and if the pigs were kept outside it has fantastic vitamin D. By the way, awesome video, I'm crazy about fried okra.
Sorry....but vegetable oils are not a recent invention. Olive oil has been around for about 6000 years or more, as far as human use. You're mistaking that with the recent inventions for human use...which are canola oil / rapeseed oil,, corn oil, cottonseed oil, soy oil and so on. THose are not to be confused with the oils that have been used for thousands of years, especially olive oil and sunflower oil...oils made from seeds that we normally eat. The real problem is the hydrogenated oils also....the margarine that so many ate for a few decades after ww2. Gotta be wary of the cheap oils....which are almost always questionable, yet end up in so much prepared foods bought in the store.
Thanks, Sarah! I'm hoping the olive oil isn't as bad as the others, but who knows? I don't get it smoking. I do think lots of the older cooking ingredients are lots better than the modern gmo lab-created stuff.

Next Mom video will def include applause!

Here's to your mom! Feedback like this is what it's all about... hope you have some delicious okra and great memories of your mom.
One of my favorite things growing up was “corn and okra”. My granny fried the okra like this. We put some fried okra on our plate and then spooned the creamed corn on top of the okra and ate it together. It was delicious!
Ahhhh! I like to do that too and add a few black-eye peas as well. Granny-cooking is the only cooking that rivals mom-cooking.
There's nothing like fried okra, and I'm not even southern. It all looks delish Scott!
Somehow it's a healthy veggie wrapped in carbs, salt and fat... can't go wrong!
Thanks to your mom, she raised you well. Remember, she’s not old, she’s just older than you.😉
Wish my mom was still with us enjoy her Scott !
Amen, brother!
Yay! I love that Mrs. S made the video! She cooks her okra very similarly to my mother. SO good!!!
Moms cook the best!
Good for you sir. Great advice imparted in the end. Sweet mom and gentlemen.
Thanks, Draak!
Absolute lifesaver!! Thank you!

You are blessed my friend cherish every moment you can have a Merry Christmas
Couldn't agree more, and wish you and yours a Merry Christmas too, Doug!
This was wonderful. God bless.
Thanks, Supe!
And ham 😂 2:58
It's one of the healthiest organic vegetables.
Thanks, I always wanted to learn how to fried okra.
Have you tried it yet? Post back and say how it goes!

Did you try it yet? Gotta give it a try and see. Agree 100% on that sweet stuff... yuck! If I want a cupcake I'll have a cupcake, not a corn muffin.
Thanks Scott, this is fantastic!!
Thanks, Gino!

Dothan! Nice! Thanks, Paul. Maybe you just need to eat more okra and maybe it will kick in! :)
You've talked me into it, but I'll probably try frying it in lard or duck fat rather than a seed oil.
If you fry okra in duck fat, please let me know how it goes!
This is not pertinent to this video but I would like to know if you can use the oil from the first seasoning of a Mineral B pan to season a second Mineral B pan?
Thank you!

@@UncleScottsKitchen well hopefully those bugs got slimed!🤣…

The hydrogenated oils seem to be the worst.
