Delta Fried Green Tomatoes Recipe

Preparation and Cooking

1. 1

   Prepare the Tomatoes

   Wash and slice the green tomatoes into 1/4 inch thick slices. Pat them dry with paper towels.

2. 2

   Set Up Breading Station

   In one bowl, place the flour mixed with salt and black pepper. In another bowl, beat the eggs and mix them with the buttermilk. In a third bowl, combine the cornmeal with additional salt and pepper if desired.

3. 3

   Bread the Tomatoes

   Dip each tomato slice into the flour, shaking off the excess. Then dip into the egg mixture, and finally coat with cornmeal, pressing gently to adhere.

4. 4

   Fry the Tomatoes

   Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded tomato slices in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

5. 5

   Serve

   Arrange the fried green tomatoes on a serving platter, sprinkle with goat cheese crumbles, and drizzle with Git Back sauce before serving.
