okra rellenos (cinco de mayo, y'all)

How To Make okra rellenos (cinco de mayo, y'all)

• Step 1
  Wash okra pods then slit each open lengthwise & remove the seeds. Do not split the pod completely; it needs to become a "jacket" for the filling.
• Step 2
  Fill each de-seeded pod with pimento cheese spread (with or without jalapenos, homemade or not, your choice).
• Step 3
  Dip each filled pod in milk & then dredge in flour that has been salted & peppered to taste.
• Step 4
  Place cast iron skillet on stovetop, add peanut oil, & then once oil is hot, add okra rellenos. Do not overcrowd pan. Several frying sessions may be required depending on how much okra you are preparing.
• Step 5
  Once nicely browned, remove rellenos with a slotted spoon, plate up & enjoy.
