Funnily, two days ago i came across three versions of a recipe for Fried
Green Tomatoes which i had cut out of a newspaper last year. I haven't
tried any of these yet and they may have to be modified (i already have
taken out the `heavy whipping cream' which was in the second recipe) The
first recipe was just too much - milk, eggs, flour, oil for frying,
etcetera. The third recipe was very similar to Joanne's, excepting -
- "For extra flavour, mix celery salt/ garlic/ chives/ or pepper
into the flour before coating."
Here is number two (not Vegan but again could be modified):
Ingredients: 3 medium sized firm green tomatoes, 1 egg (or equiv. sub), 2
teasp lite whipping cream, 70ml vegetable juice, dash of hot sauce
(Tabasco used in given recipe), half cup fresh breadcrumbs, pinch of
AllSpice, butter/substitute/frying medium, 1 tbls chopped chives, celery
salt.
Method: cut tomatoes crosswise into thick slices. beat egg with
litecream, tabasco, and V8 juice. Combine breadcrumbs and spices in
another bowl. Melt half the `butter' in a skillet
over medium heat (this may work with spray-on oil too). Dip tomato slices
into liquid mixture then into breadcrumb mixture. Cook both sides until
golden - around 4 minutes.
Chives can be spinkled on top or added to the liquid ingredients.
I think this would be nice with Eggplants too.
