Directions

Slice tomatoes about 1/4". Spread on plate. Sprinkle salt proportionately over tomatoes. Continue placing tomato slices in layer over previous layer and sprinkle with salt till all tomatoes have been salted.
IMPORTANT: LET THE TOMATOES SIT (ROOM TEMPERATURE Or possibly REFRIGERATOR) AT LEAST SIX (6) Hrs. This removes water from tomatoes so which they will cook up nice and crispy.
Remove tomatoes from container. Mix flour, a little salt and pepper (to taste) in bowl. Coat each tomato slice with flour. LET SIT 30 Min.
Heat oil in a skillet to medium high. Place tomatoes in oil. (Reduce heat when necessary). Let tomatoes brown on one side, then turn and brown on the other. When tomatoes are a golden, remove one at a time and place on paper towels to drain.
I'd say serve immediately, but they're so good, most family members hover around the stove to eat them as they are ready.
Good luck!
