I saw a recipe for a bacon, lettuce and fried green tomato recipe. It looked yummy. Of, course, I wanted to put my own spin on it.

Okay, so first you make the remoulade.

Remoulade:

Use in amounts that suit your tastes

  • Zatarains creole mustard
  • Mayonnaise
  • Red chili sauce (not much)
  • Horseradish
  • Worcestershire sauce (a dash)
  • Garlic

Mix together. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Then, you fry the bacon.

Then, you fry the green tomatoes.

fried-tomato

  • 4 to 6 green tomatoes
  • salt and pepper
  • Cajun seasoning
  • cornmeal
  • bacon grease or vegetable oil

Slice the tomatoes into 1/4 – 1/2-inch slices. Salt and pepper them to taste. Mix meal and Cajun seasoning. Dip the tomatoes in meal and fry in hot grease or oil about 3 minutes or until golden on bottom. Gently turn and fry the other side.

While the tomatoes are frying, toast some bread. This can be whatever you like. I lean towards an English muffin for this.

Then, you put it all together.

Now, that is some Southern Goodness!

Today’s Lagniappe: How to choose a green tomato

When choosing tomatoes for this recipe choose a nice,
really firm, tomato. Choose a tomato that is very light green
in color and sounds almost crispy when sliced.

    Currently it seems like WordPress is the top blogging platform available right now. (from what I’ve read) Is that what you are using on your blog?

    I’m amazed, I have to admit. Rarely do I encounter a blog that’s equally educative and amusing, and without a doubt, you’ve hit the nail on the head. The problem is an issue that not enough people are speaking intelligently about. I’m very happy that I came across this in my search for something concerning this.
