Fried Green Tomatoes

Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Tomatoes

Slice the green tomatoes into 1/4 inch thick slices. Sprinkle with salt and let sit for 15 minutes to draw out excess moisture.

2

Set Up Breading Station

In three separate bowls, place flour in one, beaten eggs mixed with buttermilk in the second, and cornmeal mixed with black pepper in the third.

3

Bread the Tomatoes

Dredge each tomato slice first in flour, then in the egg mixture, and finally in the cornmeal. Press down gently to adhere.

4

Fry the Tomatoes

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

5

Make the Ravigote Sauce

In a bowl, mix together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, capers, chopped parsley, and lemon juice until well combined.

6

Prepare the Radish Relish

In a separate bowl, combine diced radishes, red onion, chopped dill, apple cider vinegar, and salt. Mix well and let sit for at least 10 minutes.

7

Serve

Plate the fried green tomatoes and drizzle with ravigote sauce. Top with radish relish before serving.
