In reply to pumpkin061. Okra Fritters are just the best thing in the world next to fried okra. We love them!

I have this cookbook!! I won it in Jackie’s first cookbook giveaway and LOVE it. This past summer I threw a party and everything I served came from this cookbook and Jackie’s syrup and biscuits!! And let me tell you, it was a fine party!

I have never thought that Okra Fritters existed. Now I have to try this. I enjoyed your review of the book, Quick Fix Southern, and will probably purchase it from Amazon.

Jaden,
Welcome to Syrup and Biscuits! If you love okra, you should grow okra. Let that be your mantra! It freezes very well and there’s about 1000 ways you can use it. I’m with you, though. I’ve never met a platter of fried okra I didn’t love.

Love that book too! Okra is the best veg ever…. deep fried okra, my weakness. Thinking about growing okra in the garden, but I’m the only one in the house that eats okra 🙁

Okra fritters look like they’ll be less frustrating to “fry” than cornmeal dredged okra. I always have a problem with the cornmeal falling off and burning. This is a great idea.

Ginger,
I love cookbooks and read them like novels. Quick-fix Southern is a good cookbook. I just reviewed Tupelo Honey Cafe’s cookbook, too. Did you see that one? I will be reviewing Mary Mac’s Tea Room cookbook next week. I’ve got to get my “okey” seeds in the ground, too, along with green beans, carrots and radishes. Then, I need some sweet banana pepper plants and I think I will be finished with my spring garden. I picked my first tomato yesterday – a Lemon Boy.

We plant our okra seeds this coming week and now I know the very first thing we’ll cook with our first harvest of okra …Okra fritters!
The cookbook review was great! I’ll have to add this cookbook to the list of cookbooks to check out!
Actually I might have to kick it to the top of the list The boiled peanuts in the crockpot peaked my interests and I won’t lie I want that corn bread recipes too.. I love me some corn bread!!!

I love some southern food! Those look really delicious. I am not much of a cook but I might have to try this recipe out.

Now, Quick Fix Southern looks like my kind of cookbook. I’ll have to check it out!
I love okra fritters. It won’t be long before we will have fresh okra growing in the garden. My husband loves okra cooked any which way!

In reply to Rebecca Lang. Rebecca, You are most welcome! I just made the Sausage, Vidalia and Tomato dish, too. Both of those have been posted on my Syrup and Biscuits fan page on Facebook and people are very interested in them both. Tomorrow, I post the giveaway contest directions featuring Quick-fix Southern.

Jackie,
Thank you so much for the glowing review! There’s nothing like hearing that my book is loved. I just wish I was there to share some okra fritters with you.
