Vegan Fried Green Tomatoes

• 2lbs green tomatoes, sliced
• 2/3 cup almond milk (or other plant-based milk)
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups sourdough bread crumbs
• 1 tsp cayenne
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1/2 tsp salt 
• 2 tbsp avocado oil 
• 1 can white beans 
• 1/4 cup dill
• Juice of 1 lemon
• 1 tbsp white miso
• 2 tbsp olive oil 
• 1/2 tsp salt

Step 1

In a small bowl, add milk and flour. Mix just a touch: You don’t want a dough to form. It should still be liquidy, with the flour not fully incorporated.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, add the crumbs, paprika and cayenne. Stir to mix. Dip each tomato slice first in the milk/flour bowl. Ensure the slice has the mixture on both sides. Then submerge in the crumbs and get the crumb/spice mixture on both sides.

Step 3

Add the avocado oil to a medium pan on high heat. Add the tomato to the pan and fry for 2 mins per side. Make sure not to burn them. Repeat for each slice. If you add multiple slices to the pan, just be sure not to crowd the pan too much!

Step 4

Let the slices cool as you make your dipping sauce. Add beans, dill, miso, lemon juice and salt to a blender. Mix and slowly add olive oil. Mix to a “dip” consistency.
