BREADED TOMATOES



Breaded Tomatoes image

I grew up in southern California, and my dad took advantage of our long growing season by keeping a great garden. Dad grew potatoes, lettuce, radishes, onions and lots of tomatoes. If we were lucky enough to have meat on Sunday, Mother would fix this tomato side dish. The sauce gives them a different flavor.

Time 30m

Yield 8-10 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 to 10 small to medium firm fresh tomatoes
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 cup crushed saltines
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
CHEESE SAUCE:
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
Dash white pepper
1-1/2 cups milk
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Peel and core tomatoes but leave them whole. Dip each whole tomato in melted butter. In a small bowl, combine saltine crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Roll tomatoes in crumb mixture, gently pressing crumbs onto tomato. Place tomatoes in a single layer in a greased shallow baking dish. If there are any crumbs or butter left, combine them and sprinkle over the tomatoes. Bake at 475° for 15 minutes or until tomatoes begin to brown and are heated through. Watch closely; they burn easily. Meanwhile, for cheese sauce, melt butter in a medium saucepan. Stir in flour, salt and pepper. Add milk all at once; cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly. Remove from the heat; stir in Parmesan cheese. Serve over tomatoes.

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 c clery, small dice
1/2 c onion, finely chopped
2 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp flour
3 slice bread, toasted, buttered and cut in 1/2" cubes
1 15 oz can tomatoes, broken up (i use canned stewed tomatoes)
1 Tbsp sugar, (can use splenda)
1 tsp salt
couple dash(es) pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Saute celery and onion in butter until tender. Blend in flour, add tomatoes, sugar, salt and pepper, along with half of bread cubes. Pour into 1 1/2 quart casserole. Top with remaining bread cubes. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 50 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, firm tomatoes: Overripe tomatoes will fall apart during frying, while unripe tomatoes will be too sour.
  • Slice tomatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Use a shallow dish for breading: This will make it easier to coat the tomatoes evenly.
  • Add salt and pepper to the breading mixture: This will help to flavor the tomatoes.
  • Use a non-stick skillet for frying: This will prevent the tomatoes from sticking.
  • Heat the oil over medium heat: If the oil is too hot, the tomatoes will burn.
  • Fry the tomatoes in batches: This will prevent the pan from becoming overcrowded and the tomatoes from sticking to each other.
  • Cook the tomatoes until they are golden brown and crispy: This will take about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Drain the tomatoes on paper towels: This will remove any excess oil.
  • Serve the tomatoes hot or at room temperature: They can be enjoyed as a side dish or appetizer.

Conclusion:

Breaded tomatoes are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or side dish. They are perfect for any occasion, from casual get-togethers to formal dinners. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that is sure to impress your guests.
