You can also fry up red tomatoes with this recipe but make sure they are not over ripe or they will be mushy. Serve these tomatoes outside with a glass of iced tea one summer night and enjoy the sunset with someone you love.

PERFECT FRIED GREEN TOMATOES
I have been making fried green tomatoes for over 35 years, taught by my grandmother who is from down south. Over the years I have tried and made fried green tomato recipes and this is the one that is perfect. Cajun ranch sauce goes perfect with this crispy on the outside but smooth and creamy on the inside tomato.

Steps:
- Season tomato slices with salt and pepper.
- Combine flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a shallow bowl. Pour buttermilk in a second shallow bowl. Mix cornmeal, parsley, paprika, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, and cayenne pepper in a third shallow bowl.
- Dredge each tomato slice in the flour mixture to coat, dip into the buttermilk, and finish by pressing each side of the tomato into the cornmeal mixture to coat. Lay coated tomato slices onto a baking sheet; rest to let tomatoes absorb flavor of coating, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Gently drop tomato slices into the hot oil and cook until golden brown and floating, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain on a plate lined with paper towel.
- Whisk ranch dressing, cajun seasoning, and hot pepper sauce together in a small bowl; serve with the fried tomato slices.

QUICK FRIED GREEN TOMATOES
This is for those who've never had fried green tomatoes and/or may be a little intimidated at the thought of preparing them.This recipe is super easy, and super quick. I've had FGT that were a little grainy in texture or burned due to added sugar. These are much better with a delicate, crispy coating that literally melts in your mouth. If you feel the need for sugar sprinkle it on immediately after cooking.

FRIED GREEN TOMATOES
"EACH TIME I fix these tomatoes, it takes me back to the Ohio farm where I grew up. I savor the taste of this delicately sauteed vegetable, with its crisp crust, moistened slightly with the pan gravy. Mom could do these to perfection! Maybe that's why this dish is my favorite part of this memorable meal."

- .Use a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife and cutting board to slice each tomato into 1/4 inch pieces (no larger). Lay the sliced green tomatoes out on a large cookie sheet or plate and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Next dredge each slice in the flour mixture until coated shaking off the excess. Return to the cookie sheet and let sit for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes the tomatoes will begin to soak up some of the flour mixture. Once this happens dredge the tomatoes through the flour mixture a second time shaking off the excess.
- Add vegetable oil to a large deep skillet and heat over medium heat. You want the oil about an inch deep. Once the oil is shimmering, add your green tomatoes in and fry for 3-5 minutes per side until they are brown and crispy.
