Stormy, I’ve never used a dipping sauce with fried okra, but you might try ranch dressing with it.

Could you suggest a dipping sauce for the Okra? Made your recipe and this was the first time I had deep fried okra. Loved it. Just wondering what kind of dipping sauce would go good with this. Thanks for posting this.

This was exactly what my husband was looking for. The only thing I would do differently is split the flour mixture and add more as needed. I only needed about 1/3 of what was called for but had to throw the rest out because it had the egg in it from the okra. Next time I will not use so much. Otherwise, it was great!

This came out great! I’ve never fried okra before, so I just followed your directions step by step, and it turned out wonderfully. Thanks!

I have been cooking okra for a loooooong time and have never had it turn out as well as it did tonight. The breading stayed on for the first time ever! Great technique. Thanks so much for sharing it.
