Categories     side-dish

Time 55m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons fine sea salt
1 1/2 teaspoons Cajun or Creole seasoning
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
1 cup buttermilk
3 large unripe (green) tomatoes, sliced into 1/4-inch-thick slices
Nonstick cooking spray, for the tomatoes
1 clove garlic, minced
Fine sea salt
1 large egg yolk (from a pasteurized egg)
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup neutral oil, such as canola
1/2 teaspoon Cajun seasoning

Steps:

  • For the tomatoes: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper.
  • In a large flat bowl or pie plate, whisk together the flour, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and 1/2 teaspoon of the Cajun seasoning. Put the breadcrumbs into a second pie plate and season with the remaining 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning. Pour the buttermilk into a third pie plate. Pat the tomato slices dry with a paper towel. Dredge them first in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess, then in the buttermilk, and then finally in the panko, patting to coat completely. Place onto the lined sheet pans, spaced about 1 inch apart. Spray the tops lightly with nonstick spray.
  • Bake for about 15 minutes, then flip the tomatoes, spray the tops lightly with nonstick spray, rotate the pans and bake until golden brown, an additional 15 minutes.
  • For the Cajun-spiced aioli: Meanwhile, sprinkle the minced garlic with salt and use the back of a knife to press it into a paste. Add the garlic and egg yolk to a stainless steel bowl along with the lemon juice and Dijon mustard; whisk to combine. Combine the oils in a container with a spout that will allow for easy controlled pouring. While whisking constantly, slowly add the oil in a slow steady stream (see Cook's Note). Stir in the Cajun seasoning and add salt to taste.
  • Serve the tomatoes on a platter with a bowl of the Cajun-spiced aioli.

Categories     side-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 quarts vegetable oil, for frying
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for sprinkling
1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
1/2 cup buttermilk
4 large eggs
2 cups yellow cornmeal
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
4 green tomatoes (about 1 pound), sliced 1/4 inch thick
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup hot vinegar peppers, drained and finely chopped, plus 2 tablespoons hot vinegar pepper juice
2 teaspoons sweet paprika
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

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.
