Slow-Carb Fried Green Tomatoes

I figured out this grain-free alternative when I found that I had a great surplus of tomatoes from my garden. I was worried that the tomatoes would not cook, but they do well so long as they are cut thinly.

Step: 1

Mix garbanzo bean flour with salt and pepper on a plate. Whisk eggs in a bowl. Scoop almond flour onto another plate. Cover tomatoes with garbanzo bean mixture to coat, then dip them in the eggs. Dredge in almond flour to coat completely.

Step: 2

Pour about 1/2 inch oil into a large skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Place tomatoes into the hot oil in batches of 4 or 5 so that they do not touch. Cook until browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip and fry the other side, 1 to 2 minutes more. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat with remaining batches.

This also can apply to cooking process . You don’t want to push more often your oven by scheduling three dishes at once in there, or be rounding four pans on the cooking items . But sometimes you can make a dish do more often .
