Best Fried Green Tomatoes

• servings: 4 servings
• active time: 5 minutes
• total time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

4 large green tomatoes

2 large eggs

½ cup milk

1 cup all-purpose flour

½ cup cornmeal

½ cup bread crumbs

2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt

¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

1 quart vegetable oil for frying

Directions

Gather all ingredients.

Slice tomatoes 1/2 inch thick. Discard the ends.

Whisk eggs and milk together in a medium-sized bowl. Scoop flour onto a plate. Mix cornmeal, bread crumbs, salt, and pepper on another plate. Dip tomatoes into flour to coat. Then dip tomatoes into milk and egg mixture; dredge in breadcrumbs to completely coat.

Heat oil in a large deep skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place tomatoes in hot oil in batches of 4 or 5, to prevent them from touching; fry until crisp and golden brown on one side, then flip and fry on other side.

Transfer fried tomatoes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with remaining tomatoes.

Serve hot and enjoy!
