Tomato Mayonnaise Michel Fitoussi Recipes

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat the oil over moderately high heat. When the oil is hot, add the carrots, stir to coat with oil and reduce the heat to moderate. Cover and braise for 20 minutes, stirring regularly.
• Add the garlic, season with salt, stir and continue cooking over low heat until the carrots are almost caramelized and the garlic is soft and tender, about 15 minutes more.
• Sprinkle with the olives, stir and taste for seasoning. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Puree the tomato pulp and set aside.
• In a bowl,start by beating the egg,salt,white pepper and cayenne pepper together with 1 tablespoon of the oil.
• Continue whisking in the oil 1 tablespoon at a time until the sauce has emulsified and all of the oil is incorporated into the sauce.
• Fold in the pureed tomato and the tomato paste.
• Add the lemon juice and adjust seasonings to your taste.
• Store tomato mayonnaise tightly covered in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Blend all ingredients in a small bowl.
• Refrigerate 30 minutes before serving so flavors can develop.

Steps:

• Beat egg yolk until thick and sticky.
• Add the mustard and vinegar and beat some more.
• Carefully add the olive oil a few droplets at the time. If you add too much at once the mayonnaise will curdle. The mayonnaise should be extremely thick.
• Peel the tomatoes and pass the juice and pulp through a fine sieve until you have 1 cup juice.
• Put 1/4 cup mayonnaise into a bowl. Reserve the rest for another use. Slowly beat tomato juice into mayonnaise. The sauce should be smooth and velvety.

Steps:

• Whisk together the mayonnaise, basil, salt, pepper, lemon juice, olive oil and garlic. Spread the mayonnaise mixture on the top of 2 slices of bread. Place the sliced tomato on top of one
• bread slice. Place the remaining slice of bread, mayonnaise side down, on top of the tomato. Cut the sandwich in half and serve.

Steps:

• For the basil mayonnaise: Pulse the basil, mayonnaise, lemon juice and mustard in a food processor until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
• For the fried tomatoes: Season the tomatoes with salt and pepper. Place the flour in a shallow dish. Whisk together the buttermilk and hot sauce in another shallow dish. Whisk together the panko and cornmeal in a third shallow dish. Working with 1 slice of tomato at a time, coat the tomato first in the flour, then in the buttermilk and then finally in the cornmeal. Repeat this process with the remaining slices.
• Add enough vegetable oil to a large skillet to coat the bottom and heat over medium to medium-high heat. Working in batches, fry the tomato slices until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels. Serve the tomatoes warm with the basil mayonnaise.

Steps:

• Season the tomatoes with salt and pepper. Place the flour on a plate. Whisk together the buttermilk and hot sauce in a shallow bowl or a pie tin. Whisk together the cornmeal and panko bread crumbs in a separate pie tin.
• Working with one green-tomato slice at a time, coat the tomato first in flour (knocking off excess), then in the buttermilk, then finally in the cornmeal-bread crumb mixture. Transfer the breaded slice to a baking sheet, and repeat with the remaining slices.
• Preheat the oven to 200°F. Line a second baking sheet with paper towels.
• Heat 3/4 inch of vegetable oil in a medium skillet to 350°F. Working in batches, fry the tomato slices until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cooked tomatoes to the prepared baking sheet, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Keep the cooked tomatoes in the warm oven while you fry the remaining slices. Serve the tomatoes warm, with a generous dollop of Basil Mayonnaise.
• Basil Mayonnaise
• Pulse the basil, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and mustard in a food processor fitted with a metal blade until smooth, then transfer to small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
• The Basil Mayonnaise can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.

Steps:

• Place one cup of flour, the butter, sugar and salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Process just until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs, about 10 seconds. Add the water and slowly pulse just until the pastry begins to hold together, about six to eight times. Do not let it form a ball. Turn the pastry out onto waxed paper and flatten the dough into a circle. If the dough is excessively sticky, sprinkle it with several tablespoons of flour. Wrap in waxed paper and refrigerate for at least one hour.

Steps:

• Divide tomatoes into individual serving bowls.
• Immediately before serving top each bowl with a dollop of mayo. Do not try to do this ahead -- the tomato juice will melt the mayo into an unappealing mush.
• Pass the salt shaker and pepper grinder at the table.

Steps:

• Stir together mayonnaise and pesto until well blended. Spread on hamburgers, or serve as desired.
