Buffalo Green Tomatoes Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Tomatoes

   Slice the green tomatoes into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Sprinkle with salt and let sit for 15 minutes to draw out moisture.

2. 2

   Set Up Breading Station

   In one bowl, place the all-purpose flour. In another bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, combine the cornmeal, black pepper, and additional salt.

3. 3

   Bread the Tomatoes

   Pat the tomatoes dry and dredge each slice in flour, then dip in the beaten eggs, and finally coat with the cornmeal mixture.

4. 4

   Fry the Tomatoes

   In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Fry the breaded tomato slices in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels.

5. 5

   Make the Blue Cheese-Lime Yogurt

   In a bowl, mix the blue cheese, plain yogurt, lime juice, and hot sauce. Adjust seasoning with salt to taste.

6. 6
