Description
If you’re not frying your green tomatoes in bacon grease then you have lost half of the great flavor! No self-respecting Southerner fries their green tomatoes in anything but bacon grease!
Ingredients
- 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
Instructions
- 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.
