Preparation

Step 1

In a broad bowl, mix together the eggs and buttermilk. Whisk in 1 tablespoon of flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Soak the tomato slices in this liquid for up to 5 minutes.

Whisk together the remaining flour, salt, and pepper.

Heat about 1-inch of oil to 350 degrees in a heavy skillet.

Dredge the tomato slices, one at a time, in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess.

Fry the slices in uncrowded batches in the hot oil. (Slices should not overlap as they cook.) Fry each until crisp and transfer to paper towel to drain.

Salt to taste.

Serve with tomato chutney
