1
Slice the tomatoes
Wash and slice the green tomatoes into about 1/4-inch thick slices.
2
Prepare the breading
In one bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk.
3
Bread the tomatoes
Dip each slice of tomato first in the flour mixture, then in the egg mixture, and finally back in the flour mixture to coat well.
4
Heat the oil
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat until hot.
5
Fry the tomatoes
Carefully place the breaded tomato slices in the hot oil and fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
6
Drain and serve
Remove the fried tomatoes and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve warm with dressing on the side.
