Steps:
- For the fried green tomatoes: Pour the vegetable oil into a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot and attach a deep-frying thermometer. Heat the oil over medium heat to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with paper towels and top with a cooling rack.
- Set up 3 low-sided dishes to make a breading station: To the first dish, add the flour, salt and black pepper and stir to combine. In the second dish, beat the buttermilk with the eggs. In the third dish, stir together the cornmeal and panko.
- Using one hand, dredge both sides of the tomato slices in the seasoned flour, shaking each piece to remove any excess. Next, using the other hand, dip the tomato slices into the egg mixture, allowing it to drip before moving onto the third dish. Using your first hand, coat the tomato slices in the breadcrumb mixture evenly on both sides.
- Working in batches, carefully place the breaded tomatoes into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 30 seconds per side. Transfer to the cooling rack and sprinkle each slice generously with more salt.
- For the dipping sauce: Put the mayonnaise in a bowl, add the hot peppers and pepper juice, paprika, sugar and salt and stir to combine. Serve the fried tomatoes immediately with the dipping sauce on the side.

QUICK FRIED GREEN TOMATOES
This is for those who've never had fried green tomatoes and/or may be a little intimidated at the thought of preparing them.This recipe is super easy, and super quick. I've had FGT that were a little grainy in texture or burned due to added sugar. These are much better with a delicate, crispy coating that literally melts in your mouth. If you feel the need for sugar sprinkle it on immediately after cooking.

- Fried Green Tomatoes. Fried green tomatoes are a classic. Simply slice green tomatoes that are fully sized but not yet ripened fully and coat each slice in egg and flour, cornmeal and breadcrumbs.
- Pickled Green Tomatoes. Pickling green tomatoes is a great way to make a tangy, slightly sweet, slightly spicy treat that can be used in much the same way as bread and butter pickles.
- Green Tomato Fritters. Another way to fry up those green tomatoes is in fritters. Simply combine fresh green tomatoes with a batter mix of your choosing – like the spiced chickpea flour and rice flour batter described in the recipe in the link below.
- Fried Green Tomato Burritos. You can add green tomato slices to a wide range of wraps and sandwiches. Why not mix things up a little and make some delicious fried green tomato burritos?
- Green Tomato Chutney. No matter how busy you get in the kitchen cooking home-made meals each night, you may still find that you have too many green tomatoes to use up right away.
- Zingy Green Tomato Salsa. Another way to preserve your green tomatoes for longer, or simply to use up a lot of them in one go, is to make some green tomato salsa to accompany a wide range of different dishes – from burgers and sandwiches to wraps and tacos.
- Green Tomato Ketchup. If you are a “ketchup with everything” sort of family, then what better way to use up those green tomatoes than by using them to make this handy condiment.
- Green Tomato Shakshuka. You can use either green tomatoes or tomatillos in this shakshuka recipe. Sometimes also referred to as ‘eggs in purgatory’, this fiery dish combines eggs with a base mix of tomatoes, garlic, chillies, and other seasoning.
- Green Tomato Curry. World cuisine offers plenty of inspiration when it comes to making full use of the green tomatoes from your garden. Another idea for a flavoursome dish is to make some sort of curry from your green tomatoes.
- Green Tomato Chilli. You could also consider adding green tomatoes to a chilli. The recipe linked to below is for meat eaters, but you could easily also substitute the ground beef for a vegan and vegetarian friendly option, or omit the mince altogether and simply use some beans.

- Rinse the tomatoes with cool water and pat them dry with paper towels. Slice them into 3/8" thick slices. (That's between 1/4 and 1/2" thick). Do not pat the cut surfaces of the tomato dry with paper towels.
- Pour enough oil into a cast iron or stainless steel skillet to reach a depth of 1/4" to 1/2" . The oil gets too hot for some nonstick skillets. Heat the oil over medium heat until very hot but not smoking. You will know it is ready when you sprinkle a few grains of cornmeal in it and it immediately sizzles. You can also use a candy thermometer if the oil is deep enough. I absolutely love using a digital, no contact infrared thermometer. You just point it at the oil and it reads the temp. Amazing. You want the temperature to be between 360 and 375 degrees. Keep a close watch on the oil while dredging the tomatoes.
- Gather 3 small plates or shallow bowls. I like to use paper plates for the dry mixtures for easy clean up. In one plate, combine the flour and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. In the second plate, whisk together the milk and egg with a fork. In the third plate, the cornmeal, breadcrumbs, pepper, the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper.
- Working with 2 or 3 tomato slices at a time, press the tomato slice into the flour, coating both sides. If the flour doesn't stick to the edge of the tomato, run the edges through the egg/milk mixture, then back in the flour. Dip the flour coated slice into the egg/milk mixture, then gently press it into the cornmeal mixture.
