Fried Green Tomatoes

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tomatoes

    Wash and slice the green tomatoes into 1/2-inch thick slices.

  2. 2

    Soak in Buttermilk

    Place the tomato slices in a bowl and cover them with buttermilk. Let them soak for about 15 minutes.

    Prepare Breading Station

    In a shallow dish, combine flour, cornmeal, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.

  4. 4

    Bread the Tomatoes

    Remove the tomato slices from buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off, and then dredge them in the flour mixture, coating both sides evenly.

  5. 5

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot (about 350°F or 175°C).

  6. 6

    Fry the Tomatoes

    Fry the breaded tomato slices in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
