I was disappointed in the last few recipes I've tried over the years,
so I just put together what I thought sounded good this time.
Yum! A nice way to use the last of the season tomatoes!
Fried Green Tomatoes
Slice tomatoes a little less than 1/2" thick.
Dip into beaten egg, then dredge in a combination of
cornmeal, corn flakes crumbs (you can buy them already
crushed) panko bread crumbs, salt, pepper and paprika.
Fry them in a skillet with about 1/4" oil over medium heat
turn when well browned to cook the other side.
Transfer to paper towel or rack. Sprinkle with salt.
Continue the process, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
Dipping Sauce
I whisked together equal amounts of mayo and sour cream.
Sprinkle in a little sugar, salt, pepper and add enough
Sriracha to make it pink.
Yum!

Sounds delish...I will pass this on to my son.
ReplyDeleteI hope he gives them a try and like them this time! :)
DeleteI must try that, it sounds really yummy. The trouble is all my tomatoes have turned red! Perhaps next year. . . .
ReplyDeleteI didn't know you grew tomatoes!
DeleteThree plants in a grow-bay in the storm porch, it faces south so plenty of light.
DeleteYou had more plants than me! ha.
DeleteIs this a meal on its own or a sort of vegetable? I don't think it's a UK thing. But sounds tasty.
ReplyDeleteIt would be considered a side dish. I'm sure it's not a UK thing..haha...
Deletemaybe they will come out with a crisp in this flavor! :)
I wouldn't be surprised!
DeleteMe, either! haha.
DeleteOh my gosh! One of my favorite meals! Love to use Panko...it just adds that extra bit of crispness.
ReplyDeleteYeah, panko is great...very crunchy!
DeleteSounds truly scrumptious . . :)
ReplyDeleteGosh 71 degrees there looks nice and warm ~ quite cold here . .
DeleteThey are! If you ever get around to being a chef, you'll have to try them!
DeleteYes, it's beautiful here....but it's still afternoon. Well get down in the 40's tonight.
DeleteLooks like it's 56 degrees there in Bristol! :)
Yummm - sounds amazing. And the dipping sauce too!
ReplyDeleteI loved the dipping sauce...have to make that one again,...would be great with a lot of things!
DeleteKnew they were a thing
ReplyDeleteFrom the movie ring
Hint, don't eat what they make
Their meat is rather umm fake
Can't remember about the meat
Deletebut it doesn't sound very neat!
Might have to watch again
to see what meat was a sin.
haha.
Was a human treat
DeleteThey gave to eat
Oh, the bbq....
Deleteyes, that was just ew.
How could I have forgotten that?
Blame old age and I'll slap you flat. hahaha...
lmao biting my tongue
DeleteSo my bell doesn't get rung
Ahh crunchy fried green tomatoes with sriracha sauce..that would be delicious!
ReplyDeleteMy green tomatoes are done:( The last few froze in the garden.
Well, maybe next year! haha....
DeleteI do like some fried green tomatoes! Only had them once this year though.... I think I like the red, juicy ones better! Some trivia for you... the movie from 1991 named Fried Green Tomatoes was filmed at the Whistle Stop Cafe in Juliette, GA....exactly 1 hour south of us. We drove down a couple of years ago, just meandering, and ate lunch there at the Whistle Stop! (Yes, we tried their fried green tomatoes!) Nice little trip. Thanks for reminding me of that!
ReplyDeleteWell, aren't you a wealth of information. :) How very fun that you went down there and had a visit. I agree...love the red juicy ripe ones best, but these were pretty for end-of-the-season!
DeleteFried green tomatoes are wonderful and one of my favs!
ReplyDeleteMarla
I really liked the way these came out....a nice way to use up the green ones!
DeleteI've never had these.I bet I'd like them though!
ReplyDeleteI bet you would, too! :)
DeleteI'll have to try these sometime...
ReplyDeleteOne of my very favorite foods!
ReplyDeleteHaven't tried the cornmeal mix before; I just usually double-dip in egg mix & flour. Dee-lish! :P
