Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 medium-sized, firm green tomatoes
Salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning (optional)
1/2 cup milk or buttermilk
1 egg
1/3 cup fine white cornmeal (or regular cornmeal, if you can't find it)
1/2 cup fine dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup peanut oil, canola oil, or olive oil for frying

Steps:

  • Slice and salt green tomatoes: Cut unpeeled tomatoes into 1/2 inch slices. Sprinkle slices with salt. Let tomato slices stand for 5 minutes.
  • Set out shallow bowls with coating ingredients: While the salted green tomato slices are resting, place in three separate, shallow bowls: 1) the flour and Cajun seasoning (if using), 2) buttermilk and egg, and 3) breadcrumbs and cornmeal. Whisk together the egg and buttermilk.
  • Bread the tomato slices: Heat the oil in a skillet on medium heat. Dip the green tomato slices in the flour-seasoning, then the buttermilk-egg mixture, then the cornmeal-breadcrumb mix.
  • Fry the breaded tomatoes: In the skillet, fry half of the coated tomato slices at a time, for 3 to 5 minutes on each side or until brown. Set the cooked tomatoes on paper towels to drain. These fried green tomatoes are fantastic with a little hot sauce or remoulade .

You can also fry up red tomatoes with this recipe but make sure they are not over ripe or they will be mushy. Serve these tomatoes outside with a glass of iced tea one summer night and enjoy the sunset with someone you love.

FRIED GREEN TOMATOES



Fried Green Tomatoes image

"EACH TIME I fix these tomatoes, it takes me back to the Ohio farm where I grew up. I savor the taste of this delicately sauteed vegetable, with its crisp crust, moistened slightly with the pan gravy. Mom could do these to perfection! Maybe that's why this dish is my favorite part of this memorable meal."

MOM'S FRIED RED TOMATOES



Mom's Fried Red Tomatoes image

My mom's simple recipe. Easy, great and tasty! Please remember the nutritional facts are not correct, because you are not eating all the coating ingredients. Also, these amounts are to my families tastes, adjust to your liking. REMEMBER: TO ADD MORE BUTTER AND OLIVE OIL TO THE PAN AS NEEDED. THERE SHOULD ALWAYS BE A LAYER OF LIQUID TO FRY IN.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 30m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 large tomatoes (not to ripe because you want them to hold up during cooking)
1 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons pepper
2 teaspoons seasoning salt (I use Lowery's)
1 tablespoon butter (per frying batch- maybe 3 Tbsps. needed total)
1 tablespoon olive oil (per frying batch- maybe 3 Tbsps. needed total)

Steps:

  • Cut tomatoes into thick slices. Put aside.
  • Mix flour, salt and pepper in shallow dish for coating.
  • Heat butter and olive oil in pan, until it's hot enough to fry inches.
  • Pre-heat oven to warm setting. (Lowest setting).
  • Coat tomato slices in flour mixture.
  • Place in pan until gloden brown.
  • Place on baking sheet and place in warm oven until ready to serve. (I think they taste better if put in the oven for a little bit because it crisps them up a bit.).

  • Slice green tomatoes 1/4 inch thick. If you prefer your fried green tomatoes super-crispy, slice them a little thinner.
  • Prepare three bowls (or pie plates) as follows: Bowl 1: Mix Wondra, paprika, and garlic salt. Bowl 2: Whisk together eggs and buttermilk.Bowl 3: Mix Wondra, masa harina, panko crumbs, kosher salt, white pepper, and paprika.
  • Carefully prepare the area before you begin frying the battered tomatoes. Always make sure that the work surface you are frying on is stable. Add oil to skillet until it is ⅛-¼ inch deep. Preheat oil in skillet to 340° [171°C].For crisp frying, oil must maintain a temperature of 325-340F° [162°-171°C] throughout the cooking process.I usually set the temperature of my electric skillet to 350F° [177°C] when it’s heating up, and drop it down a few degrees to about 335° when the tomatoes are actively frying.
