Ingredients

  • 4–6 green tomatoes
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Yellow cornmeal
  • Vegetable or olive oil

Directions

  1. Slice the tomatoes ¼–½ inch (0.75–1.25 cm) thick.
  2. Salt and pepper tomato slices to taste.
  3. Dip slices in cornmeal and shallow fry in hot grease or oil over medium heat for about 3 minutes or until golden on bottom.
  4. Gently turn over, and fry the other side.
  5. Serve by themselves or, for a elegant addition, add a little goat cheese.
