These tomatoes are a great way to use up extra green tomatoes from the garden.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tomatoes turned out soggy. I think I might have used too much oil.

These tomatoes were a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

I'm going to try making these tomatoes with different types of breading next time. I think they would be great with panko breadcrumbs or cornmeal.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my tomatoes didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked. I think I'll try frying them for a little longer next time.

These tomatoes were a little too greasy for my taste.

I'm not a huge fan of fried foods, but these tomatoes were an exception. They were light and crispy, and the flavor was out of this world.

I've never had fried green tomatoes before, but these were amazing. The coating was crispy and flavorful, and the tomatoes were still juicy and tender on the inside.
