3 Videos | Photo: Fried Green Tomatoes Recipe
Ingredients
- Oil
- 4 green tomatoes, cut into 1/4-inch rings
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 4 eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 1/2 cups panko bread crumbs
- Pinch cayenne pepper
- Pinch paprika
- Buttermilk Dipping Sauce, recipe follows
Directions
In a deep-fryer, preheat oil to 350 degrees F.
Season tomatoes, on both sides, with salt and pepper. Place flour and garlic powder in a shallow dish. In another shallow dish, beat eggs with the milk. In another dish, mix bread crumbs with cayenne and paprika. Dredge tomatoes through the flour, then the eggs, and then through the bread crumbs. Add only a few pieces to the fryer at a time, so they can cook evenly, about 2 to 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels and serve with Buttermilk Dipping Sauce:
Buttermilk Dipping Sauce:
- 1 cup apple cider
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 3/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Neelys BBQ sauce
- 1 lime, juiced
- 4 scallions, sliced thin
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the apple cider and brown sugar. Allow to reduce until thick and syrupy. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
In a medium bowl, add buttermilk, mayonnaise, BBQ sauce and lime juice and whisk well. Add in the scallions and the apple cider mixture. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve with Fried Green Tomatoes.

The family thought it was good, even our non tomato member. I didn't have large tomatos, but a lot of variety of small green ones from our garden. I cut those up in slices which made them like a tomato bite, as a side. Of course it took longer to prep, however I used up some of our green tomatoes. We also used corn meal instead of panko crumbs and added variety of seasonings for flavor. Family wants me to try it again with the panko crumbs to choose which is best. I believe this is the way my family gets me to make things again, using the "compare" method as the reason. Will try again though.

Delicious! My husband, who hates tomatoes & my picky 4 yr old loved them! Easy to make and flavorful. I used Italian seasoned panko crumbs and didn't make the sauce. This will be a new staple for us. Thank you!

I only used the buttermilk dipping sauce recipe, I used a plainer fried green tomato recipe, but the sauce was divine, and perfect with them! Fabulous! My kids even loved it! I thought the combination of ingredients sounded weird until I made it and then... WOW!
