In a large skillet over medium heat, heat about 1/2 inch of vegetable oil until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Each tomato slice should be dredged in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess, dipped in the egg mixture, letting any excess drop off, and then coated once more in flour mixture while the oil is heated. Ensure that the flour mixture coats each tomato slice equally.
Carefully place the coated tomato slices in the hot oil while working in batches, being cautious not to pack the skillet too full. The tomatoes should be crispy and golden brown after 2 to 3 minutes of cooking on each side.
