Soak the okra in the buttermilk.
In a large ziplock bag mix the flour, corn meal, pepper and garlic. Drain any excess buttermilk and put the buttermilk coated okra into the breading mixture. Shake well until all the okra is coated in the breading.
Pour the whole bag out into a pasta strainer over your garbage can to shake off any excess breading.
Dump all the okra into your oil. Cook for about four minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
