Fried Green Tomato Recipe

4 Large Green Tomatoes
2 Eggs
1/2 Cup Milk
1 Cup All Purpose Flour
1/2 Cup Cornmeal
1/2 Cup Breadcrumbs
2 Tsp Kosher Salt
1/4 Tsp Ground Black Pepper
1 Qt Vegetable Oil

Slice tomatoes in slices 1/2 in thick, discarding the ends.
Whisk eggs and milk together in a medium sized bowl. Scoop flour onto a plate.
On a different plate, mix cornmeal, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper.
Dip tomatoes into flour, then into the milk/egg mixture, and finally into the breadcrumbs/cornmeal mixture to completely coat them.
In large skillet pour enough vegetable oil so there's at least 1/2 inch in the pan and heat over medium heat.
Place tomatoes in frying pan in small batches (4 or 5 at a time). They should not be touching. When top side of tomatoes becomes browned, flip and fry on the other side.
Remove from grease and drain on paper towels.

Enjoy!
