Steps:
- Soak peas overnight in lots of water. Drain. Peel the outside skin from the peas.
- In a processor, pulse the 1 onion and red pepper to coarsely chop. Add soaked peas and puree to a paste. Transfer to a bowl and using a whisk, whisk the mixture adding salt, white pepper and just a little soaking liquid -- not too much as the mixture needs to retain its shape for frying.
- Using an ice cream scoop, form into balls about the size of a ping-pong ball. Drop into a pot of hot olive oil, heated to 360 degrees F. Fry until golden brown. Remove to paper towel-lined plate. Season again with salt and pepper.
- Make a quick dipping sauce by pulsing 2 seeded tomatoes, 1 onion, 1 green pepper and some parsley in food processor. Add olive oil and season with salt and pepper. It should be a little chunky, but smooth enough to stick to the fried akara.
AKKARA PATTIES
Steps:
- 1. make the batter: wash & drain peas, then soak overnight in cold water. Grind peas in a blender, adding water gradually to form a firm paste. Fold onion, salt & cayenne into mixture (use no more than 1/8 tsp. cayenne first unti you determine how hot you like it). 2. Fry the patties: in a large, deep non-stick skillet, heat a thin layer of the combined oils. Working in batches, drop spoonfuls of pea paste into skillet until it is full, but not crowded, with patties. Cook each patty 3-4 minute until browned on one side. Then turn to brown the other side. Add a few more drops of oil if necessary to ensure the edges of patty become slightly crispy. When both sides are browned, remove fritters witha slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Garnish with sea salt flakes (optional). Serve warm with tomoato chutney or chili sauce.

OKRA PATTIES
My favorite way to use okra, and besides...it is good. I usually make this in the summer when okra is plentiful, but I have also used frozen okra successfully. NOTE: I should have put this notice here before, but just didn't think! Okra should be chopped by hand. The food processor makes it way to slimey to work with.
