Fried Green Tomatoes

Method

Fried Green Tomatoes

  1. 1

    Prepare the tomatoes

    Wash and slice the green tomatoes into 1/4 inch thick slices. Lay them out on a paper towel and sprinkle with salt. Let them sit for about 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture.

  2. 2

    Set up the breading station

    In one bowl, place the all-purpose flour. In a second bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. In a third bowl, combine the cornmeal, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and remaining salt.

  3. 3

    Bread the tomatoes

    Dredge each tomato slice in the flour, shaking off the excess. Dip it into the egg mixture, then coat it in the cornmeal mixture, pressing gently to adhere the coating.

  4. 4

    Fry the tomatoes

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the breaded tomato slices in batches, frying for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels.

Remoulade Sauce

  1. 5

    Combine the ingredients

    In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth.

  2. 6

    Garnish the sauce

    Stir in the chopped fresh parsley for added flavor and freshness.
