Fried Green Tomatoes

Ingredients

  • 3 firm green tomatoes, sliced

  • ½ cup flour
  • ½ tsp Cajun seasoning
  • ½ cup buttermilk
  • 1 egg
  • 3 Tbsp vegetable oil for frying

  4. Coat tomatoes in cornmeal mixture, dip in buttermilk and coat a second time with cornmeal.  Allow 5 minute rest. Sprinkle with cornmeal mix a third time just before frying.
