Answer by misscatitude2002
I dip them in a milk and egg batter, then bread them in a cornmeal and flour mix. Then fry them to a golden brown.
What do you think? Answer below!
make a cornmeal & flour mixture.and salt & pepper. then dip them in either an milk or egg mix.dredge them in the flour mixture. fry in hot greased pan.
just wash them really good and slice them about 1/4 to1/2 inch thick depending on how you like them.Heat a non stick skillet with oil on med heat.beat an egg in a bowl dip in slices put salt and pepper in cornmeal coat the dipped slices well in the corn meal fry in skillet watch skillet do not let them fry to fast they will have a tendency to burn. when brown on oneside turn over and brown other side drain on paper towels and enjoy.
I love to fry green beans. First you blanch them in boiling water until it sightly soft, then dry them in paper towel and dust with dry flour. Mix beer, egg white and corn starch as your batter, not too loose or too thick, it will coat the beans nicely. Then deep fry them. The beans are so fluffy and tender. You can also fry zucchini this way too, just skip the blanching.

Bacon grease is definitely what to use for frying!
First, beat an egg into about a cup of milk. In a second bowl, combine flour, cornmeal and your favorite spices. Dip tomato slices into egg mixture, then coat with flour. Here’s the trick for making them really good–double-dip them! Back into the egg/milk, then back into the flour/cornmeal. Then fry them in butter, it gives them extra flavor! This is the only way I’ll eat fresh tomatoes!
slice your green tomatoes as you would any other tomato.
in order for them to be fried – you need to cover them in crnmeal an cook them fairly quickly..
