Try frying it without the flour or cornmeal. Use a couple of slices of bacon, onion and garlic, salt and pepper to taste. A dish to die for, my grandmother and mother fried it this way. Continue stirring until the okra turns to a slightly darker green. Wow, what a dish!

of all the fried okra recipes this is the way to cook okra i learned. you have it right.

no deep fat frying, definitely no eggs, flour or milk.

the corn meal needs to be white corn meal fine ground, not available everywhere.

Too much oil in that recipe. Also, use flour instead of corn meal. Stir it constantly so that it won’t brown too much.
