FRIED GREEN TOMATOES WITH REMOULADE

The green tomato is an anchor of Southern cooking. I like to fry them until they're brilliantly crispy and golden brown. It's so simple and straightforward, just like Southern food should be.

Fried Green Tomatoes with Remoulade image

Steps:

  • For the remoulade: In a small mixing bowl, combine the mayo, shallots, scallions, mustard, cayenne, hot sauce, lemon juice, Worcestershire, a pinch of salt, and lemon zest. Adjust the seasoning with more salt and hot sauce if needed and reserve. Makes 1½ cups.
  • Fry the tomatoes: Bring cast-iron skillet to medium-high heat. Season the green tomato slices with salt. Set aside on a rack fitted over a rimmed baking sheet, which will later become the cooling rack after frying. Find 3 similarly shaped shallow baking dishes. In the first, add flour. In the second, pour the eggs. In the third, add cornmeal. We are creating an assembling line of dredging. One by one, flour a tomato slice on both sides, dunk in the egg mixture, and then dredge in the cornmeal. As you finish each tomato, stack them on a cutting board.When the skillet has preheated, add the oil and heat to shimmering. Fry the green tomatoes until golden, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
  • Assemble the dish: When the tomatoes are crispy, golden brown, and heated through, place them on the cooling rack. Dollop a tablespoon of remoulade on a serving plate and arrange the fried green tomatoes over the sauce. Garnish with some arugula, more remoulade and serve immediately. Nobody wants soggy tomatoes!

1 cup mayonnaise
2 Shallots, minced
6 Scallions, thinly sliced, white and pale green parts
2 tbsps whole grain Creole-style mustard
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon Louisiana-style hot sauce (Crystal)
1 tbsp Lemon juice, freshly squeezed
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce, (omit for vegetarian remoulade)
kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest, grated
12 Slices of green tomato, 1/3 of an inch thick
1 cup all-purpose flour
3 Eggs, beaten with 1/4 cup cold water
1 cup fine yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup vegetable oil
Arugula, for serving

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.

  • 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.
