Fried Green Tomatoes
"Unripe tomatoes that have been plucked from the vine early to be dredged and coated in a crispy breadcrumb and cornmeal mixture then fried in hot oil to make golden discs of crispy crunchy goodness. A southern delicacy, these fried green tomatoes are crispy crunchy on the outside with a tender tangy center spiced with cajun seasoning and a dash of Tobasco sauce for ultimate flavor. So set aside the tomato pie recipe for now and give those unripe tomatoes a try if you haven’t yet! "
