Southern-style fried green tomatoes are peak crunchy comfort food. 🍅✨
Tangy green tomatoes + crispy cornmeal coating = ridiculously good.
Typical setup:
- Firm green tomatoes
- Flour → egg/buttermilk → cornmeal coating
- Fried until golden and crunchy
- Served with ranch, remoulade, or spicy mayo
For extra crunch:
- Mix cornmeal with panko
- Add paprika, cayenne, and garlic powder
- Salt the tomato slices first to pull out moisture
They pair perfectly with:
- Fried chicken
- Shrimp
- Burgers
- BBQ plates
