Fried Green Tomatoes

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tomato Coating

    In a shallow bowl, mix the cornmeal, flour, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, beat the eggs.

  2. 2

    Slice the Tomatoes

    Slice the green tomatoes into 1/2 inch thick slices.

  3. 3

    Coat the Tomatoes

    Dip each tomato slice first into the egg wash, allowing excess to drip off, then coat in the cornmeal mixture.

  4. 4

    Fry the Tomatoes

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the coated tomatoes in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain.

  5. 5

    Make the Pimento Cheese

    In a mixing bowl, combine the smoked cheddar, gouda, cream cheese, and mayonnaise. Mix until well combined.

  6. 6

    Make the Dijon Honey Mustard

    In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard and honey.

  7. 7

    Prepare the Fresh Herb Puree

    Blend the fresh herbs with a little olive oil until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
