BEST FRIED GREEN TOMATOES
You can also fry up red tomatoes with this recipe but make sure they are not over ripe or they will be mushy. Serve these tomatoes outside with a glass of iced tea one summer night and enjoy the sunset with someone you love.

Steps:
- Slice tomatoes 1/2 inch thick. Discard the ends.
- Whisk eggs and milk together in a medium-size bowl. Scoop flour onto a plate. Mix cornmeal, bread crumbs and salt and pepper on another plate. Dip tomatoes into flour to coat. Then dip the tomatoes into milk and egg mixture. Dredge in breadcrumbs to completely coat.
- In a large skillet, pour vegetable oil (enough so that there is 1/2 inch of oil in the pan) and heat over a medium heat. Place tomatoes into the frying pan in batches of 4 or 5, depending on the size of your skillet. Do not crowd the tomatoes, they should not touch each other. When the tomatoes are browned, flip and fry them on the other side. Drain them on paper towels.

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.

Steps:
- Wash and slice your tomatoes into thick slices, not less than 1/4-inch, not more than 1/2-inch.
- Heat plenty of lard or vegetable oil over medium heat in your favorite thick-bottomed skillet.
- In the meantime, set flour aside in a small bowl or plate. Whisk eggs in another, and use the third plate for cornmeal.
- Dip the tomato slices first in flour, then the egg mixture, lastly in the cornmeal. Make sure the last layer is nice and thick for a spectacular crunch.
- Once the lard/oil is hot, place the coated tomatoes one by one into the hot fat and fry until they are golden brown. If they cook too fast, they will be crunchy inside and out. So, don't rush. Cook them slowly enough, about 3 minutes on the first side, before flipping.
- When done frying, place them on a wire rack to chill.

FRIED GREEN TOMATOES, TENNESSEE STYLE
Since I'm from Tennessee and since I love green tomatoes that's how the recipe got it's name. If you want to change the amounts of the seasonings, go right ahead. When turning over, use a pancake turner so coating won't come off. Submitted to "ZAAR" on August 5th, 2007.

FRIED GREEN TOMATOES WITH COMEBACK SAUCE
Green tomatoes come in season once a year and there are so many great things about them. They're firm, crispy and perfect when soaked in brine. They have great flavor and when you fry them, you end up with this crispy, fresh, slightly oily flavor that is amazing with the famous comeback sauce.
