A delicious take on the Southern staple, fried green tomatoes, are fried red tomatoes. This recipe adds a hint of sweetness and a wonderfully sensitive texture, making them just as cozy and fulfilling as garden tomatoes that are ripening faster than you can pick. It may be a Sunday dinner, a family get-together, or just a fresh way to enjoy the abundance of your garden crop. Even the pickiest young palates may enjoy the rich, juicy taste of Fried Red Tomatoes with a crispy skin.
This recipe is perfect for a cosy lunchtime served with a grilled cheese sandwich or a big scoop of creamy mashed potatoes. To counteract the richness of the tomatoes, consider a simple garden salad dressed in a tart vinaigrette for a lighter side dish. Remember that Fried Red Tomatoes are a great side dish or topping for your omelet or morning eggs. It’s a certain way to make your day happier.
