Fried Green Tomatoes

Ingredients:

  • 2 egg whites, beaten
  • 1 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 1/2 tsp. fine sea salt
  • 2 ripe green tomatoes, sliced crosswise to 1/4 inch
  • 2 Tbsp. vegetable oil

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 200 F or the “keep warm” setting, if you have it.
  2. Place the egg whites in a shallow bowl for dredging. Combine the cornmeal and salt in another shallow bowl for dredging.
  3. Heat the vegetable oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches to avoid crowding the pan, dredge a tomato slice in egg white and then cornmeal mixture and place directly into the hot oil. Fry on each side for about 2 minutes, or until cornmeal is lightly browned and formed a crispy crust.
  4. Tomatoes should still be firm. Remove fried tomato slices to a wire rack over a baking sheet lined with paper towels and place them in the oven to stay warm. Garnish with chives if desired.
