Brought to Blog by Allie Jones
Original recipe makes 4 servings
4 large green tomatoes
2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup bread crumbs
2 teaspoons coarse
kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground
black pepper
Plenty of olive oil
Directions
1. Slice tomatoes 1/2 inch thick. Discard the ends.
2. Whisk eggs and milk together in a medium-size bowl. Scoop flour
onto a plate. Mix cornmeal, bread crumbs and salt and pepper on another plate
(note to RED group – for our southern/Cajuun night I added some Cayenne and
paprika to the plate). Dip tomatoes into flour to coat. Then dip the tomatoes
into milk and egg mixture. Dredge in breadcrumb mixture on plate to completely
coat.
3. In a large skillet, pour vegetable oil (enough so that there is ¼
to 1/2 inch of oil in the pan) and heat over a medium/high heat. Place tomatoes
into the frying pan in batches of 4 or 5, depending on the size of your
skillet. Do not crowd the tomatoes, they should not touch each other. When the
tomatoes are browned, flip and fry them on the other side till that side ia
also brown. Drain them on paper towels.
