Fried Green Tomatoes


We love these so much we may never see any ripe tomatoes from our plants. I'm still sort of shocked that the plants survived the tornado (took out a barn and half the house, but the tomato plants are still standing).

Proportions are approximate-here's the method.

Slice tomatoes about 1/2 inch thick
in separate bowls place the following:
milk
2 beaten eggs
cornmeal tossed with salt and chili powder to taste
plain flour

First dip the tomatoes in milk, then plain flour. Then dip in egg, then in cornmeal. When all are coated, heat a pan with about an inch of oil over moderate heat. Fry the tomatoes in hot fat for about a minute each side or until nicely browned. Drain, eat with hot sauce.
