Combine okra, onion, salt, pepper, egg and water; mix well. In separate bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and garlic powder. Add to okra mix and combine well.

Drop spoonfuls of batter into about 1/2 inch of hot oil ( you could probably deep fry these too). Fry over medium heat until well browned on both sides.

Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt when they come out of the oil for extra seasoning.
