fried green tomatoes

My method:
-Slice a green tomato (basically, an unripe tomato) into 1/4" slices
-Season both sides with salt & pepper
-Sprinkle lightly with flour, and dip in egg wash 
(a beaten egg with just a little water added)
-Dredge in panko breadcrumbs, seasoned with salt
-Heat a pan with enough oil to generously coat the bottom
-When the oil is nice & hot, add the tomato slices, and cook until both sides are nicely browned, but before the tomatoes start to break down (the unripe tomatoes are pretty firm, so they should hold up well)
