Closet Cooking

Cooking adventures in a small, closet sized, kitchen. - I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.

Fried Green Tomato and Shrimp Remoulade Po Boy

[heart_this] · Sep 25, 2010 · 33 Comments

Fried Green Tomato and Shrimp Remoulade Po Boy

After enjoying the fried green tomatoes with shrimp remoulade so much last week, I simply could not resist turning it into a po’ boy sandwich. (A po’ boy is a sandwich from Louisiana that is served in a baguette.) I already knew that the crispy and tangy fried green tomato and succulently spicy shrimp and tasty remoulade sauce was a winner and wrapping it up in a fresh baguette with its chewy outside and soft, melt in your mouth inside, could only make things better! I think that I have found my new favourite po’ boy; it’s too bad it is so late in the season. I will be looking forward to making them again next year!

Fried Green Tomato and Shrimp Remoulade Po Boy

    There are few things I love more than fried green tomatoes. Shrimp po boys may be one of them. Nice work.

    Nice! I am going to make a point of making this recipe.

    Have you ever been to Hot Belly Mama's in Peterborough? I used to live there, aside from the place I worked, that was my favourite restaurant, really tasty creole food.
