3-4 unripe green tomatoes
1 ½ cups Panko breadcrumbs
¾ cup buttermilk
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning (creole seasoning)
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground cumin
3 tablespoons oil (vegetable oil, olive oil)
Caesar Dressing for dipping

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Set out a large rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle the oil on the baking sheet and spread it around with a spoon or brush.

KAREN'S FRIED GREEN TOMATOES



Karen's Fried Green Tomatoes image

This recipe comes from my mom and they are, hands down, the best fried green tomatoes. She makes these every summer with fresh tomatoes from her garden. My sister begs her to make them for her as soon as she sees tomatoes growing big and green on the vines. While most recipes call for breadcrumbs and oil, this one calls for flour and has you fry the tomatoes in butter, which helps give these an incredible flavor.
