Chef Tam’s Fried Green Tomatoes
Ingredients:
2 Tablespoons of Sprinkle Me Baby By Chef Tam
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup milk or buttermilk
1 large egg
1/3 cup fine white cornmeal
1/2 cup fine dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup Wesson Canola Oil
Preparation Method:
Step 1
Slice and lightly season green tomatoes. Cut unpeeled tomatoes into 1/2 inch slices. Sprinkle slices with Sprinkle Me Baby By Chef Tam. Let tomato slices stand for five minutes.
Step 2
Set out shallow bowls with coating ingredients. While the seasoned green tomato slices are resting, place in three separate, shallow bowls: 1) the flour and Cajun seasoning (if using), 2) buttermilk and egg, and 3) breadcrumbs and cornmeal. Whisk together the egg and buttermilk.
Step 3
Bread the tomato slices. Heat the oil in a skillet on medium heat. Dip the green tomato slices in the flour-seasoning, then the buttermilk-egg mixture, then the cornmeal-breadcrumb mix.
Step 4
Fry the breaded tomatoes. In the skillet, fry half of the coated tomato slices at a time, for 3 to 5 minutes on each side or until brown. Set the cooked tomatoes on paper towels to drain. Add to your BLT sandwich! These fried green tomatoes are fantastic with a little ranch dip.
