Fried Green Tomatoes with Remoulade Dipping Sauce
Nothing says Summertime in the South like crispy, fried green tomatoes! A mouthwatering appetizer, this recipe gets creative with the acidic flavors of unripe green tomatoes lightly tossed in crunchy breadcrumbs. Paired up with a zesty dipping sauce of jalapeños, creamy mayo and of course a little Carolina Cooker® Southern Sunshine Sauce - it's one of our seasonal favorites to fry up.Note: you may need more flour and breadcrumbs depending on size of tomato – have some available just in case
Ingredients
Yield 4 servings3 large green tomato
Salt as needed
1 cup flour
1 tbsp CC Cajun seasoning
3 eggs lightly beaten
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
Oil for frying
Remoulade Sauce:½ cup mayo
¼ cup CC Southern Sunshine sauce
1 tbsp minced parsley
2 tbsp minced onions
2 tsp minced garlic
1 tbsp minced jalapeño
½ tsp CC hot sauce
Directions
Step 01:
Heat oil to 350 degrees.
Step 02:
Slice your green tomato into roughly ½ inch slices, place the slices on a plate and season one side with salt and set aside. Let them rest for about 5 min.
Step 03:
While the tomatoes are resting, mix the cajun seasoning with the flour and add to a plate. Beside the plate, have your beaten eggs in a bowl and put the panko breadcrumbs on a separate plate.
Step 04:
When tomatoes are ready, place them one by one in the flour, then the egg and then cover well with the breadcrumbs. There should not be any part of the tomato uncovered. Set finished tomatoes on a plate and do this step until all tomatoes are breaded.
Step 05:
Once breaded it's time to fry them! Fry until they are a nice golden brown and crispy. Remove from oil and place on a paper towel lined plate to soak up excess oil. Remove the towel and serve with the sauce.
Step 06:
Remoulade Sauce:Put all ingredients in a bowl and mix well until creamy.
