FRIED GREEN TOMATOES RECIPE

Steps:

• Slice tomatoes into ½ -inch thick slices. In a shallow dish, mix together flour, salt and pepper. Place the egg and buttermilk in a separate shallow dish, and the cornmeal in a third dish.
• One at a time, dip the tomato slices in the flour mixture, then into the egg mixture (shake off the excess), and then dredge in cornmeal. Place on a wire rack on top of a baking sheet and refrigerate for 15-30 minutes.
• Pour oil in a cast iron skillet or Dutch oven to a depth of about 1 inch. Heat oil over medium heat to a temperature of about 325 degrees F. Without crowding the skillet, fry tomatoes in batches until golden brown on one side (about 3 minutes). Then gently turn and continue cooking until golden on the other side. Remove to a paper towel-lined tray, season with salt and pepper, and serve immediately.
