Flourless Fried Okra

Directions

1. 1
   Heat canola oil or high-heat tolerant vegetable oil (not olive oil) in a large skillet until the end of a wooden spoon sizzles and bubbles when you place it in the soil. Oil should be about a half inch deep in the skillet.
2. 2
   While the oil is heating, combine the rice flour, cornmeal, yeast, sea salt, and xanthan gum in a plate. Stir with a fork until well mixed.
3. 3
   Place the okra in a single layer on top of the dry mixture.
4. 4
   Mash it gently with a fork to flatten it and coat both sides with the mix.
5. 5
   Heat the okra pieces in a single layer in the oil, watching closely and turning when they are brown and almost crisp.
6. 6
   As the pieces are done, place them on a paper towel lined platter to drain.
7. 7
   Watch out! You'll eat them all before supper if you're not careful!
