Rendezvous Fried Okra

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Rendezvous seasoning, plus extra to garnish
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus extra to garnish
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 2 teaspoons water
  • 8 ounces okra, trimmed and sliced into 1/2-inch-thick rounds
  • Cooking spray

Instructions:

  1. In a shallow dish, combine cornmeal, flour, garlic powder, Rendezvous seasoning, and salt. In a second dish, whisk the egg and water.
  2. Preheat air fryer to 400F for 3 minutes. Meanwhile, dip half of the okra in egg mixture. Transfer to cornmeal mixture, allowing excess egg to drip off. Toss okra to fully coat, then transfer to a plate. Repeat using remaining okra.
  3. Add okra to air fryer basket in a single layer; coat generously with cooking spray. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 10 minutes, tossing okra and coating with additional cooking spray halfway through.
  4. Remove okra from basket and plate. Sprinkle with extra Rendezvous seasoning and a pinch of salt, if needed. Serve immediately.
