CRISPY AIR FRYER OKRA WITH CREOLE SEASONING

Steps:

• Preheat an air fryer 390 degrees F and set for 15 minutes.
• For the okra: Slice off the tops (stem ends) of the okra pods and then slice them in half lengthwise, so you get two long okra halves from each pod. Place in a medium bowl, pour in the milk and toss to coat.
• Combine the flour, paprika, thyme, salt, garlic granules, onion granules, oregano, black pepper, white pepper and cayenne in a large bowl and whisk to combine.
• Preheat an air fryer to 390 degrees F and set for 15 minutes. Drain excess milk from the okra and toss the okra in the flour and spice mix to evenly coat. The okra should look dry and be thoroughly coated. Place the individual coated okra pieces flat on a cutting board, shaking any excess flour back into the bowl. Spray each piece with cooking spray until the flour on the okra looks slightly wet.
• Remove the air fryer tray from the air fryer and place the okra sprayed-side down in the tray. Be sure that the okra pieces are not overlapping (work in 2 batches if necessary). Spray the other side of the okra with cooking spray. Place the tray in the air fryer and cook the okra until it is golden brown and crunchy, about 8 minutes. You do not want any parts of the okra to look dry or ashy, so about halfway through the cooking time, gently shake and toss the okra and spray them again with cooking spray.
• Meanwhile, for the sauce: Stir the mayonnaise, hot sauce, lemon zest and lemon juice together in a small bowl. Serve the okra hot with the sauce.

AIR FRYER OKRA POPPERS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Cut each okra pod in half lengthwise. Use a small spoon to scoop out the seeds and discard.
• Arrange the okra, cut-side up, in a shallow glass dish. Pour the buttermilk and hot sauce over the okra. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2-4 hours.
• While the okra marinates, make the pimento cheese filling: In a medium bowl, combine the cheddar cheese, cream cheese, mayonnaise, pimiento peppers, jalapeño, salt, and cayenne. Mix with an electric hand mixer on low-medium speed until well combined, 2-3 minutes. Transfer the filling to a piping bag and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Make the remoulade sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Creole mustard, lemon juice, parsley, green onions, paprika, cayenne, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, whole grain mustard, garlic, salt, and pepper until combined. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Assemble the poppers: After the okra has marinated, drain and rinse under cold water. Place on a paper towel-lined baking sheet and pat the insides dry.
• Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 10 minutes.
• Cut the tip off of the piping bag with the pimiento cheese filling and pipe the filling into each okra half. Wrap a half-slice of bacon around each okra half, using toothpicks to secure if needed.
• Working in batches of 5-6 at a time, air fry the okra poppers for 10 minutes, or until the bacon is cooked and crispy.
• Arrange the okra on a platter and serve with the remoulade sauce alongside.
• Enjoy!
