Ingredients: 8 oz fresh okra, trimmed, halved lengthwise; 0.5 cup cornmeal (fine or medium); 0.5 cup rice flour; 1 tsp smoked paprika; 0.75 tsp garlic powder; 0.5 tsp cayenne; 0.75 tsp kosher salt, divided; 0.25 tsp black pepper; 0.5 cup buttermilk; 2 tbsp vegetable oil for shallow frying; Zest of 1 lime

Tender okra tossed in a light, seasoned cornmeal crust, shallow-fried until crispy and golden, then tossed with Cajun spice salt and fresh lime zest. The crunch comes from technique: dredge, rest, fry—not from overbaking.
