Recipe Summary Sarah's Fried Green Tomatoes

Mmmmm...batter-dipped, crispy, fried green tomatoes. Very good with a side of blue cheese dressing!

Ingredients | Green Masala Paste For Fish Fry

2 large green tomatoes, sliced 1/4-inch thick

¼ cup milk

1 egg

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup cornmeal

1 cup panko bread crumbs

2 teaspoons salt

1 teaspoon onion powder

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon ground black pepper

¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 cup olive oil, or as needed

Directions

Put tomato slices in a colander to drain excess liquid. Discard end slices of tomatoes.

Whisk milk and egg together in a bowl. Stir flour, cornmeal, panko, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, and cayenne pepper together in a separate bowl.

Gently press a tomato slice into the flour mixture to coat and shake to remove excess flour. Dip into the beaten egg, then press again into the flour mixture. Keep breaded tomatoes on a plate while breading the rest; do not stack.

Pour enough olive oil into a large skillet to reach about 1/2 inch deep. Place skillet over medium heat and heat oil until hot but not smoking. Cook 4 to 5 tomato slices at a time in the hot oil until browned on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes; turn tomatoes and continue cooking until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes more. Reheat oil between batches, adding more oil as needed to maintain 1/2-inch depth.
