| Wash and slice tomatoes to 1/4 inch thickness, plan on at least 4 slices per person. Combine egg and milk in bowl and beat well. On a separate large plate; mix cornmeal, flour, salt and pepper. Dip tomato slices in egg mixture then coat in cornmeal mixture 1 at a time. Bring oil in large skillet or Dutch oven to medium heat, add a few slices of tomato at a time so oil stays hot (you know the oil is hot enough when a new addition of tomato sizzles). Fry until golden brown and delicious on both sides. Remove to drain on paper towels. Serve hot. Note: Us kids used ketchup to top them, but not the grownups. Try Russian dressing as a dipping sauce! |
