Kardea would be happy with a giant tray of fried okra and sweet, local Charleston shrimp, but here she takes it further. This po’boy with a tangy remoulade is the sandwich of Low Country dreams.

Fried Shrimp and Okra Po’Boys
RECIPE COURTESY OF KARDEA BROWN
Level: Intermediate
Total: 1 hr 15 min
Active: 1 hr 15 min
Yield: 6 servings
Ingredients
Remoulade:
1 cup mayonnaise
2/3 cup pickled jalapeños, drained and finely chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
1/4 cup Creole mustard
2 teaspoons hot sauce
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
Juice of 1/2 lemon (about 1 tablespoon)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Po’Boys:
8 to 12 cups frying oil
2 cups buttermilk
2 teaspoons hot sauce
2 1/2 cups yellow cornmeal
2 tablespoons seafood seasoning
8 ounces okra, halved lengthwise
Kosher salt
1 pound small shrimp (21 to 25), peeled and deveined
Six 8-inch po’boy or sandwich rolls, split and lightly toasted
3 beefsteak tomatoes, thinly sliced
6 cups shredded romaine lettuce
Directions
Special equipment: a deep-fry thermometer
For the remoulade: Combine the mayonnaise, pickled jalapeños, chives, mustard, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight to allow the flavors to combine.
For the po’boys: Heat the oil in a large heavy bottomed pot over medium heat to 350 degrees F.
In a bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and hot sauce. In a shallow dish, combine the cornmeal and seafood seasoning. Dip the okra into the buttermilk mixture, then into the cornmeal mixture. Fry in batches until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack over a sheet tray and sprinkle with salt. Repeat the dredging process with the shrimp and fry in batches until they float and are golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle with salt.
To assemble the sandwiches, slather both sides of the rolls with the remoulade. Add 3 to 4 slices of tomato to each, around 6 shrimp, around 6 pieces of okra and around 1 cup romaine.

Kardea you have a very beautiful heart! You are so thoughtful! I wish you were my Sister but I will take cousin! 💕
Good notice about Kardea Brown. ❤️🍤🥪🥙
Looks so good and I'm sure delicious. Enjoyed listening to the stories too 👍
I live in the north now and I noticed up here they fry seafood in half all purpose flour + fine cornmeal.
My fiancee was from Ghana He passed away Loved okra and made me best shrimp ever This is an interesting recipe Going to try it for sure Hmm
And also, shrimps are the bottom feeders of the ocean. They're filled with bacteria and they're not good for you at all. That's another reason why they're called PoBoys cuz only poor people could afford to eat shrimp.
Ms. Brown , as long as the okra is battered/breaded/cornmeal I like it , this po boy looks delicious, outstadanding sammich , God Bless you & your brothers
I need that 🔥
Sensational! Beautiful all the way around!
Kardea is the quintessential queen of southern cooking, and her amazing recipes rarely disappoints indeed!!
She's nice but all her food is unhealthy. She's like the black Paula Been
Hey Cuz, Chucktown Geechie girl living in San Antonio TX, I miss seeing you on the food network but glad to see you on YouTube. Happy Black History Month and keep inspiring the people and I’m so Proud of you, James Island loves you ❤❤❤❤
Carbs (bread) on carbs (cornmeal) !
You can just eat fired okra and fried shrimp – putting them in a sandwich too many competing flavors
THIS FOOD LOOKS SO GROSS…DISGUISTING….EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
Hi my new beautiful friend.thats great and healthy food.thank you for sharing this delicious recipe.new friend here.stay connected ❤❤❤❤❤
Wow! Never seen you cook before. Nice poboy. I’m down in Savannah. Looks tasty. Only other way I might eat okra is in sucatash or whatever it’s called. It’s on one of the Glory products.
Kardea ♥️ …You’re brothers 😍😍.
Yum thanks0
Yum! Love that okra too❤
Fresh okra is a banger.
Appreciate the video and recipe but we do not know how long the shrimp fried for at 350 and I don't know what "seafood seasoning" is? Is it Old Bay or Creole or something else?
As a Southern Gal on the Gulf Coast of Pensacola, Florida, I APPROVE!!!💖💖💖😋😋😋
That's the only way I will eat okra. I don't do slimy 😊
