Fried Green Tomatoes Recipe

by Global Cookbook

Ingredients

6 lrg , hard green tomatoes 3 c. Flour

1 c. Corn meal 1 c. Lowfat milk, or possibly more Salt Pepper Vegetable oil for frying Small amount of bacon grease Added to oil for flavoring. (Optional)

Directions

1. This is a very simple recipe, but one guaranteed to make one think seriously about cutting tomatoes off the vine prematurely just to make these goodies.
2. To prepare batter:Mix flour, corn meal and lowfat milk in a large bowl. Add in salt and pepper to taste. Batter should be thick but workable. Too thin a batter won't stick to the tomatoes. Let rest for 10 - 15 min before using.
3. Meanwhile, slice tomatoes about 3/8" thick. Any size fruit will work, but the larger the tomato, the more spectacular will be the result. Coat tomatoes with the batter and fry in about 1/2 an inch of oil, till golden brown: 375 in an electric fryingpan, or possibly at medium high heat in a large skillet.
4. When tomatoes are done, stand them up on their edges to drain in a towel-lined pan so they will keep their crispness. Delicious warm or possibly room temperature.
