Southern Fried Okra With Bacon & Onions | Mattie’s Kitchen

Dear miss Mattie, in 1968 I was living in an old abandoned house with no utilities so no refrigerator,, I was also very hungry as food stamps then was $12 a month,,,, a really nice lady across the street, Mrs Woods brought me some food and her okra was prepared just like this, I'd never had it before,, thank you dear lady for bringing back a great memory ❤️💋

Thank you very much Ms or Mrs Mattie. I’m single and I’m tryna get this cooking situation together. Thank you for the step by step instructions. GOD bless you!

Yummy will try it ❤

The slime is the best part! People just don't know! 😆

Love okra any way

Great job 👏

Thanks

I want to try this. Thank you God bless you

Just like my grandma made it! With some fried freshwater fish and some pan fried cornbread! Yummy!

That looks awesome , will try

Miss Mattie, my parents were from North and South Carolina. My mother fried up fat back for the grease and flavor before adding her fresh cut Okra. She'd remove the fat back and then sit that on a plate for us kids to have a fat back sandwich later. She added the cut Okra and the sound of that sizzle and the smell of that fat back grease said to us that love was in the house. Now to us if there wasn't any slime in those Okra something was wrong. We loved it! Add a pot of rice, skillet cornbread or melt in your mouth biscuits, fried chicken, or Lake Trout fish, fried corn and slices of tomatoes . . . That was good eating, but we didn't touch nothing until we said grace. Oh and don't forget that large picture of lemonade. Thank you for doing fried Okra up right!

Youtube randomly recommended me your wonderful Video. I really love some fresh Okra. Unfortunately here in Germany where I live it's hard to finde them. But I will get me some an try this recipe. Looks really wonderful and I bet it tastes amazing. Thank you for sharing this.

I can smell this video! ❤🤗

In Indian cuisine we cook the okra in quarter cup of oil…till light brown ..then add the spices and whole garlic pieces..one chili chopped up finely…and then cumin powder…one cup of chopped onions..and a few green onions…sauté all till golden brown..salt.pepper to taste. We garnish this with fresh cilantro…served as aside dish for flat breads,cooked rice. Or cooked wheat granules. Enjoy my version. I like your way…other than salt and pepper..bacon can be cooked by itself to get crispy…or use cooked strips of bacon and then crush them…use as a garnish…To enhance the taste…add paprika…chili powder…flat leaf parsley…and green onions. Serve this with baked chicken,pork chops..,a slice of ham. Happy cooking. Thanks for introducing me to this style of cooking.

Thank you Miss Mattie.. you're a very beautiful lady...
