Fried Green Tomatoes

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the tomatoes

    Slice the green tomatoes into 1/4 inch thick slices. Sprinkle with salt and let them sit for about 10 minutes to draw out moisture.

  2. 2

    Set up the dredging station

    In a shallow bowl, combine the flour, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. In a third bowl, place the cornmeal.

  3. 3

    Dredge the tomatoes

    Pat the tomato slices dry with paper towels. Dip each slice first in the flour mixture, then the egg mixture, and finally coat with cornmeal.

  4. 4

    Fry the tomatoes

    In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the coated tomato slices in batches and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the fried green tomatoes with peppadew cheese spread, blackened shrimp, and a drizzle of remoulade.
