SOUTHERN FRIED GREEN TOMATOES



Southern Fried Green Tomatoes image

DEEP SOUTH fried green tomatoes! Made with buttermilk, cornmeal, seasonings and fried to perfection!

Provided by Divas Can Cook

Time 24m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 medium-sized green tomatoes
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
1 cup all-purpose flour (I sometimes add a bit of dried basil, salt & garlic powder to this)
1 cup buttermilk
1 egg
1 cup seasoned bread crumbs (I love using panko or crushed croutons)
1 ¼ cup yellow cornmeal

Steps:

  • Slice tomatoes into 1/4- 1/2 inch slices.
  • Place tomatoes on several layers of paper towels.
  • Mix together salt, sugar, black pepper & basil in a small bowl.
  • Sprinkle tomatoes generously with spice mixture ( may not need all of it) and let sit for about 10-15 minutes to allow the extra tomato juices to drain out.
  • Meanwhile, prepare your dipping station! In one bowl, add the flour.
  • In another bowl mix together the buttermilk and egg.
  • In the last bowl, mix together the bread crumbs and yellow cornmeal.
  • Start by dipping the tomato slices into the flour on both sides and shaking off the excess flour. (be sure to get the sides as well)
  • Lay the slices into the egg mixture until both sides are coated with the mixture and flour no longer shows.
  • Place the tomato slices into the breadcrumb mixture and press to coat both sides evenly.
  • Let tomatoes sit for about 5 minutes to allow the coating to set.
  • Heat oil in a skillet until hot. (Do a test with a bread crumb first to make sure the oil is at the right temperature. The breadcrumb should begin to fry evenly immediately when placed in the oil.)
  • Place tomatoes into the skillet, without crowding the pan.
  • Fry each side for about 4-5 minutes until golden brown.
  • Place on a cooling rack with paper towels below to absorb the excess oil that drips off.
  • Serve hot.

Provided by Caitlyn Erhardt

Categories     Appetizer     Side Dish

Time 21m

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 Large Green Tomatoes
1 1/2 Cups All Purpose Flour
1/2 Tsp Sea Salt
1 1/2 Tsp Ground Black Pepper
1/2 Tsp Cayenne Pepper (Optional)
1 Tsp Lawry's Seasoned Salt
Vegetable Oil (For Frying)
1/2 Cup Mayonnaise
2-4 Tbsp Hot Sauce (Tabasco or Frank's work best)
1/2 Tsp Horseradish
1/2 Tsp Ground Black Pepper
1/4 Tsp Cayenne Pepper (Optional)

Steps:

  • In a large shallow bowl combine flour and spices. Whisk or stir to combine and set aside.
  • .Use a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife and cutting board to slice each tomato into 1/4 inch pieces (no larger). Lay the sliced green tomatoes out on a large cookie sheet or plate and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Next dredge each slice in the flour mixture until coated shaking off the excess. Return to the cookie sheet and let sit for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes the tomatoes will begin to soak up some of the flour mixture. Once this happens dredge the tomatoes through the flour mixture a second time shaking off the excess.
  • Add vegetable oil to a large deep skillet and heat over medium heat. You want the oil about an inch deep. Once the oil is shimmering, add your green tomatoes in and fry for 3-5 minutes per side until they are brown and crispy.
  • Once golden brown remove from the oil and place on a paper towel lined plate and continue to fry in batches until all the tomatoes are fried. Serve warm with hot mayo sauce.

3 medium-sized, firm green tomatoes

SIMPLE COUNTRY FRIED GREEN TOMATOES



Simple Country Fried Green Tomatoes image

My mom used to make these when I was growing up from fresh green tomatoes from our garden. We thought we were getting such a treat! I've tweaked it and developed my own technique that is slightly different from my moms. She used to cut hers in chunks and she cooked them a lot longer because my dad liked things 'mushy,' I slice...

Provided by Elaine Bovender

Categories     Vegetables

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 to 6 medium green tomatoes
1 c whole milk
1 large egg
1/2 c self rising flour
1/2 c self rising corn meal
oil for frying
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Slice tomatoes thinly, about 1/8" thick, set aside.
  • 2. In a small bowl, add milk and egg. Beat with whisk or fork until smooth. In a shallow bowl or plate mix together flour and cornmeal.
  • 3. Dip tomatoes in milk mixture and then coat each side as evenly as possible with flour mixture, set aside. If you start to run out of your flour mixture, go ahead and add some more.
  • 4. Pour about 1/2" of vegetable or canola oil in a heavy skillet and heat until very hot, about 350 degrees. Once the oil is hot, add some of the tomato slices. Cook on one side for about two to three minutes or until golden, then carefully turn to brown the other side. Do this in batches, so as not to over crowd your skillet.
  • 5. When both sides are golden brown, remove from pan and place on a rack to cool (I use a cookie cooling rack with aluminum foil underneath as shown in the picture). Do not cool on paper towels or the tomatoes will become soggy. Repeat the process with each batch.
  • 6. Add salt and pepper to taste and serve hot with your favorite sauce. My husband loves them with a copy cat recipe Outback Steakhouse bloomin' onion sauce. I just love them plain.

Provided by Coppercloud

Categories     Vegetable

Time 36m

Yield 20-25 tomato slices, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 lbs green tomatoes, cored and sliced 1/4-inch thick
2/3 cup cornmeal
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2/3 cup buttermilk

2 cups peanut oil or 2 cups vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Place tomatoes on paper towel-lined rimmed baking sheet. Cover with more paper towels, let sit for 20 minutes, and pat dry. Meanwhile, process 1/3 cup cornmeal in blender until very finely ground, about 1 minute. Combine processed cornmeal, remaining 1/3 cup cornmeal, flour, salt, pepper, and cayenne in shallow dish. Whisk buttermilk and egg together in second shallow dish.
  • Working one at a time, dip tomato slices in buttermilk mixture, then dredge in cornmeal mixture, pressing firmly to adhere; transfer to clean baking sheet.

  • **TIP: To keep the tomatoes from weeping as they fry (which will loosen the coating), let them sit between paper towels for 20 minutes and then press dry.
