1. Boil okra in 2 pints water for 45 minutes.

2. Remove from heat and pour entire contents into a bowl.

3. Put cornmeal, 1 pint cold water and salt into a saucepan and cook over low heat for 25 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent sticking.

4. Drain water from okra at five-minute intervals, adding it to the meal.

5. At the same time, gradually add some of the meal to the okra.

6. This process should continue for 30-45 minutes, depending on the consistency desired.

7. The longer cooking period will produce a thicker CooKoo.
