These fried green tomatoes are made with eggs and cornmeal or bread crumbs.

Ingredients:

  • 4 to 6 green tomatoes, sliced 1/4-inch thick
  • salt and pepper
  • flour for dusting
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • cornmeal or bread crumbs
  • bacon grease or vegetable oil

Preparation:

Salt and pepper the tomato slices; dust lightly with flour. Dip slices in beaten egg, letting excess drip off, then coat well with meal or crumbs. Fry in hot grease or oil until browned, turning gently (about 3 minutes each side). Keep warm in a low 200° to 250° oven if frying in batches.

"This was very delicious and super easy to make. I had TONS of leftovers from the garden and didn't know what to do with them. I don't even like tomatoes (I grow them for my kids), but thought these were terrific. It was a great balance of salty, sour, crunchy & soft."
