Preparation

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Combine the egg yolk and whites. Set aside. Combine the bread crumbs, oregano, salt and pepper. Set aside. Dip the green tomato slices in the egg mixture. Dust with the bread-crumb mixture. Lay the slices on a baking sheet. Bake until the bread crumbs are golden, about 15 minutes per side. Set aside.
Step 2
Combine the red tomatoes, grated orange rind, garlic and bay leaf in a nonstick skillet. Cook over medium-low heat until the sauce thickens, about 30 minutes. Remove the bay leaf. Set aside.
Step 3
Brush the inside of a fluted tart pan, 9 inches in diameter, with the olive oil. Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce on the bottom. Cover with a layer of green tomato slices and another thin layer of sauce. Sprinkle with a small amount of the feta and repeat until all the ingredients are used up. Top with a generous layer of the feta. Cover with foil and bake for 2 hours.
