Low Fat Recipe - Okra, Corn Pudding

Low Calorie Renaissance Diet & Medieval Weight Loss Recipes

Cranky Okra Recipe

Serves 2 generously for about 125 calories

Cranky Okra contains just a tidbit of pepper heat, making it a very interesting experience for the taste buds. Village Trivia: Okra ‘tis also renown as Lady’s Finger. What a medievally-delightful name!

There’s nothing quite comparable to fried okra – that golden breading, that crunchy luscious fresh-from-the-garden taste. However, this ultra-simple recipe for Cranky Okra comes close & will save three-quarters of the amount of calories, not to mention a backdraft of fat, when compared to frying. 

Low Fat Recipe Ingredients for Cranky Okra

1 Cup of Sliced Fresh Okra

1 Teaspoon of Chili Powder

½ Cup of Cornmeal (white/yellow/blue)

Salt & Pepper

Non-Stick Cooking Spray

¼ Cup of Water

Mix together the chili powder, cornmeal, salt & pepper. Cut okra into ¼ to ½ inch chunks. Drench okra with water, but DO NOT STIR. Next, dump watered okra on the cornmeal mixture, working to make a heavy coat on the okra.

Spray skillet with the cooking spray. (HINT: A butter-flavored variety wilt add dimension to the okra.) When spray is very warm, but not yet smoking, pour okra in pan.  

WARNING: Never spray non stick cooking spray directly/near heat. It wilt blow off thy brows & whiskers.

Allow to cook completely on one side before turning. Okra will take on a beautiful golden brown. Add a bit of no calorie refrigerated butter spray to the pan to prevent sticking, if needed. Remove & serve hot with a bit of roasted chicken & half of a baked potato.
