Fried Green Tomatoes

3-4 green Roma tomatoes (2 of mine were blushing, still worked)

2 cups buttermilk (or oat milk)

2 key limes, juiced

1 bowl of flour with salt, pepper and garlic powder

1 bowl of eggs, beaten

1 bowl of panko breadcrumbs or cornmeal

1 cup mayo

2 tbs chipotle Tobasco

1/2 tsp lime pepper seasoning

shallow pan with about 1/4 inch of oil

Thin slice the tomatoes, whatever type is available green. Soak the tomatoes in the milk and lime juice for 20 minutes.

While they soak, mix the mayo with the Tobasco and lime pepper seasoning.

Dredge the tomatoes into the flour, then dip into the egg. Let some of the egg drain off, then drop into the panko or cornmeal.

Fry in the oil (med-hi heat) until each side is browned.

Serve with the mayo dip.
