Southern-Style Fried Green Tomatoes (USA southern)

[Guest guest]

I made these tonight and ended up eating them in a

sandwich and have some left for tomorrow.

 

 

Southern-Style Fried Green Tomatoes

1 cup fine yellow cornmeal

salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

1/2 cup buttermilk

cooking spray

1 teaspoon butter

1 teaspoon mild vegetable oil, corn, canola, peanut

4 large firm green tomatoes, rinsed, stem end plus a

thin slice of the bottom removed, cut into 1/2

-inch-thick rounds

 

Place the cornmeal in a shallow pan and season heavily

with salt and pepper.

Place buttermilk in another shallow pan.

Spray a nonstick skillet with cooking spray, and place

the skillet over medium heat. Add half the butter and

half the oil.

Dredge the sliced tomatoes, first in the buttermilk,

then in the seasoned cornmeal.

When the skillet is hot, add the tomato slices. Fry

until nicely browned on the bottom, about 6 minutes.

Add the remaining butter and oil. Gently turn over the

tomatoes. Fry until nicely browned on the other side,

3 to 4 minutes. Serve immediately. Serves 4.
