Time 11m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 7

½ cup bacon grease
⅓ cup all-purpose flour
¾ cup cornmeal
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 egg
¼ cup milk
1 green tomato, cut into 1/4 inch slices

Steps:

  • Heat the bacon grease in a large skillet over medium heat. In one small bowl, stir together the flour, cornmeal and pepper. In another small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk using a fork.
  • Dip the tomato slices into the egg and milk, then coat with the dry mixture. Place the breaded tomato slices in the hot bacon grease. Cook until browned on each side, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Bacon grease burns easily, so adjust your heat if you need to.

I'm allergic to eggs, so I used a flax egg instead. The fried green tomatoes turned out great! I couldn't tell the difference.

These fried green tomatoes are just like the ones my grandma used to make. They're crispy, juicy, and so flavorful. I love serving them with a side of mashed potatoes and gravy.

I love that this recipe uses whole wheat flour and panko breadcrumbs. It makes the fried green tomatoes a little bit healthier, but they still taste amazing. I served them with a side of grilled vegetables and they were a perfect summer meal.

I've made fried green tomatoes many times before, but this recipe was by far the best. The tomatoes were so juicy and flavorful, and the breading was perfectly crispy. I'll definitely be making these again!
