Crazy for Cou-Cou!

1 cup corn meal
2 1/2 cups water
6 okra, sliced
butter

Process in blender , add meal and pour into buttered dish.  Microwave for 8 mins, remove, stir well and return to microwave for 5 mins - until firm.  Smooth more butter on top, cover dish and serve.

This is not how my granny's cook made cou-cou, but it is a really good method for doing it and doesn't involve endless stirring.  Trust me, I wouldn't bother if it wasn't JUST AS GOOD.
