• Slice tomatoes into ½ -inch thick slices. In a shallow dish, mix together flour, salt and pepper. Place the egg and buttermilk in a separate shallow dish, and the cornmeal in a third dish.
• One at a time, dip the tomato slices in the flour mixture, then into the egg mixture (shake off the excess), and then dredge in cornmeal. Place on a wire rack on top of a baking sheet and refrigerate for 15-30 minutes.
• Pour oil in a cast iron skillet or Dutch oven to a depth of about 1 inch. Heat oil over medium heat to a temperature of about 325 degrees F. Without crowding the skillet, fry tomatoes in batches until golden brown on one side (about 3 minutes). Then gently turn and continue cooking until golden on the other side.

Steps:

• In a large shallow bowl combine flour and spices. Whisk or stir to combine and set aside.
• .Use a mandoline slicer or a sharp knife and cutting board to slice each tomato into 1/4 inch pieces (no larger). Lay the sliced green tomatoes out on a large cookie sheet or plate and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Next dredge each slice in the flour mixture until coated shaking off the excess. Return to the cookie sheet and let sit for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes the tomatoes will begin to soak up some of the flour mixture. Once this happens dredge the tomatoes through the flour mixture a second time shaking off the excess.
• Add vegetable oil to a large deep skillet and heat over medium heat. You want the oil about an inch deep. Once the oil is shimmering, add your green tomatoes in and fry for 3-5 minutes per side until they are brown and crispy.
• Once golden brown remove from the oil and place on a paper towel lined plate and continue to fry in batches until all the tomatoes are fried. Serve warm with hot mayo sauce.

• 3. Dip tomatoes in milk mixture and then coat each side as evenly as possible with flour mixture, set aside. If you start to run out of your flour mixture, go ahead and add some more.
• 4. Pour about 1/2" of vegetable or canola oil in a heavy skillet and heat until very hot, about 350 degrees. Once the oil is hot, add some of the tomato slices. Cook on one side for about two to three minutes or until golden, then carefully turn to brown the other side. Do this in batches, so as not to over crowd your skillet.
• 5. When both sides are golden brown, remove from pan and place on a rack to cool (I use a cookie cooling rack with aluminum foil underneath as shown in the picture). Do not cool on paper towels or the tomatoes will become soggy. Repeat the process with each batch.
• 6. Add salt and pepper to taste and serve hot with your favorite sauce. My husband loves them with a copy cat recipe Outback Steakhouse bloomin' onion sauce. I just love them plain.
