Breading and Baking

I am a big fan of coconut oil and fats. Maybe a little too much. Pan frying is my thing. But when a fourteen fluid ounce jar of oil is half devoured after a week of purchase, it is time to take a break from frying and start baking. Okra and cod has been a typical Monday night meal for a some time now, so lets add some Dead Red Ale Bread into the mix.

Conclusion

These are delicious, but make sure to flip the pieces of okra occasionally to prevent uneven cooking. Lightly breaded and crispy, these baked Dead Red Okra bits are an amazing snack or appetizer. You can use this method to bake a variety of different dishes. I made cod to compliment the okra and baked it in Dead Red Ale bread. Same process: simply dip it into butter and roll around your bread crumbs and seasoning. It you do not want to use butter you can replace it with egg.
