Remove stems of okra. Slice crosswise into half-inch pieces.
Combine almond milk and vinegar in a medium bowl and stir. Let sit for 5 minutes, until curdling. Add sliced okra and mix to thoroughly coat all pieces.
While okra is soaking, combine flour, cornmeal, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper in another bowl and stir to combine.
Pour vegetable oil into a heavy skillet. Heat to 375 F.
While the oil is heating, drain the okra and add it to the cornmeal mixture. Shake or stir to coat thoroughly and evenly.
When oil is heated, add the okra in batches and fry 2 minutes per side, until golden brown. Remove to a paper-towel lined plate to drain. Be sure to bring the oil back to 375 degrees between each batch.
Serve warm with dipping sauce of choice.
