Seafood, Fried Green Tomatoes with Remoulade Sauce

Seafood feast
We ate at a restaurant in Vicksburg that is known for their fried green tomatoes with a crab remoulade sauce. We thought they were good but of course, we thought we could do better. We like ours food a little more spicy than some so we did add a little more red pepper. In fact, we could have used more. We found another recipe that we may try later. But for now, this was very good. We used more corn meal with our tomatoes than the restaurant because that is the way we like it. We had a few spicy steamed shrimp and crawfish with corn and new potatoes.
