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. Ingredients:
1/2 cup canola oil, for frying |
4 green tomatoes, sliced |
2 eggs, beaten |
2 -3 tablespoons water |
1 cup louisiana seasoned fish fry |
1 dash salt, to taste |
1 dash pepper, to taste |
Directions:
1. Wash and slice the green tomatoes, lay on paper towles, set aside.
2. Beat the egg and water together in a flat bottom bowl, set aside.
3. Pour about 1/2 cup of the seasoned fish fry into a flat bottom dish, set aside. (You can add more later if you need to).
4. Heat 1/4 cup of the oil over medium-high heat, don't let it smoke but it needs to be hot. (You can add more oil later if you need to).
5. Set each ingredient in assembly fashion near your stove in this order: Tomatoes, Egg mixture, Fish Fry, Hot Skillet, Serving Tray lined with paper towels.
6. Prepare 6 to 8 slices at a time, depending on skillet size.
7. Dip tomato in egg, then in fish fry, then lay it in the hot oil.
8. Cook until brown, flip, and brown other side.
9. Remove from hot oil and lay on serving tray.
10. Salt and pepper to taste.
11. Repeat steps (adding a little oil to your skillet if you need to, and adding a little fish fry to your bowl if you need to).
12. Serve immediately.
