Fried Green Tomatoes

6 ingredients
7 steps

Ingredients

  • 1 cup canola oil
  • 1 cup egg substitute (recommended: Egg Beaters)
  • 1 cup fine plain bread crumbs
  • 1 green tomato, sliced 1/4-inch thick
  • Remoulade sauce, accompaniment, optional
  • Shrimp, accompaniment, optional

Directions

  1. 1
    Pour the oil into a large heavy pan suitable for deep-frying and heat oil to 350 degrees F. Pour the egg substitute into a shallow bowl and place the bread crumbs into another shallow bowl.
  2. 2
    Dip the sliced green tomatoes into the egg substitute and then into the bread crumbs to lightly coat.
  3. 3
    To test if the oil is hot enough, add a pinch of the bread crumbs to the oil; if it bubbles to the top, then you are ready to fry.
  4. 4
    Carefully add tomatoes to the hot oil and cook on 1 side for 1 minute.
  5. 5
    Flip the tomatoes to cook on the reverse side for 1 minute.
  6. 6
    Remove tomatoes from the oil and drain on paper towels.
  7. 7
    Top with a remoulade sauce and serve with shrimp, if desired.
