Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. paprika
  • 3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 2 Tbs. fresh oregano, finely chopped, or 2 tsp. dried
  • 1 egg, well beaten
  • 4 green tomatoes, each about the same size
  • canola oil
Cooking Directions

Combine flour and salt and pepper to taste on a sheet of wax paper. Combine cornmeal and oregano on another sheet of wax paper. Rinse and dry tomatoes and cut a thin slice off the top and bottom of each and discard. Then slice each tomato into 3 thick slices. Dredge tomatoes in seasoned flour, dip in egg and then coat thoroughly with cornmeal. Place on a wire rack set over a piece of aluminum foil to catch any drippings. Heat 1 inch oil in an electric deep fryer to 375°F. Fry 3 tomato slices at a time about 3 minutes per side, until lightly golden. Drain on paper towels and repeat with remaining tomatoes.
