Here's how. First, you'll need to gather up the ingredients. You'll need flour, corn meal, Season All (salt and pepper if you don't have this seasoning), milk, oil, and of course, green tomatoes (three nice sized ones).
1. Heat enough vegetable oil in your frying pan to come up half way on the slices when they're in the pan. Make sure the oil is really hot before you add the tomatoes.
2. Slice your tomatoes thick.
3. Mix 1 1/2 cups cornmeal with 4 tablespoons of flour and 2 Tablespoons of Season All
4. Dip both sides of tomato slices in milk
5. Coat both sides of tomato slices in meal mixture
6. Fry those things in the oil. I do it about 3-5 minutes each side. Turn only once.
7. Take out and enjoy!
I don't believe I've ever eaten fried green tomatoes.
ReplyDeleteThey're a southern food. Where I live, they actually sell green tomatoes in the grocery store for just that purpose.
DeleteI missed your ripe tomato post. Besides chard, it's the only thing in my garden that the wildlife doesn't chomp down.
ReplyDeleteIf you want to see my ripe tomato post, you can look under my "gardening tips" page (or just scroll down until you find it on my home page).
Deletei have only had them from "captain d's"---i love them!
ReplyDeleteThey are pretty good, aren't they?
DeleteI've never had them before. Looks yum. I'll give it a try.
ReplyDeleteThey're definitely something different!
DeleteHaven't had fried green tomatoes in years. They are so good! You can also make green tomato salsa. I've done that in the past. Turned out pretty good.
