The okra that you buy at the store that is frozen and breaded is too much breaded stuff. I just fry it in a little bit of coconut oil and keep turning it until it is all brown on both sides.
I agree that fresh is better, but living in Southern California it is very hard to find fresh okra. It's not a vegetable that most people from here have even heard of.
