Ingredients
  

Fried Green Tomatoes

  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1 tbs garlic powder
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tbs milk (Or buttermilk if you like the twang)
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup cornmeal
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne
  • 1/4 tsp paprika
  • 4 green tomatoes
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Oil, for frying

Tabasco Remoulade

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup spicy creole mustard
  • 1 tbs lemon juice
  • 1 tbs Tabasco
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tbs ketchup
  • 2 tsp paprika

Instructions
 

  • To make the sauce, combine all ingredients in a food processor or mix by hand. Chill for at least 1 hour.
  • Prepare your assembly line by combining the flour and garlic powder in one bowl, the eggs and milk in another, then the breadcrumbs, cornmeal, cayenne, and paprika in a final bowl. Lightly beat the eggs and milk.
  • Heat a heavy bottom skillet or cast iron skillet with about 1/2 to 1 inch oil over medium-high. Alternatively, heat a deep fryer to 350 F.
  • Slice the tomatoes about 1/4 inch thick, then season with salt and pepper.
  • Lightly dredge them in the flour, then dip in the egg mixture, then coat in breadcrumbs.
  • Without crowding the pan, fry until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate but serve warm.
