wash the tomatoes and pat dry. Cut tomatoes in 1/4 inch slices. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Dip each slice in corn meal and lay aside on waxed paper. Heat oil. Fry tomato slices until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Serve hot.

Fried Green Tomatoes

Fried green tomatoes are one of my favorite things in the world. Thanks for the recipe! As a note, if you want really crispy outsides on your tomatoes, I always dip them in a little soy milk first and then a cornstarch/cornmeal mixture before frying.

Lots of Oxalic Acid in green toms. Never eat them raw. Frying should destroy a fair bit of it but be careful, especially if you're prone to kidney stones. I've had 'em and they don't 'arf 'urt! (^!^)
They're the equivalent of bad labour pains or having a limb torn off. That sort of thing.

I wish I could try fried green tomatoes some day, but I can't get green tomatoes where I live. I think you'll have to grow your own tomatoes to get your hands on green ones, right? -- Nikitta a.a. #1759 Apatriot(No, not apricot)#18 ICQ# 251532856 Unreferenced footnotes: nut.house.cxcgiOpen ↗ bin/nemwiki.pl?ISFN Hi, I'm the .signature virus.

Ask your greengrocer to get you some unripened tomatoes. If you still have your veggie subscription, see if they'll give you some green tomatoes next spring. Otherwise, your best bets are to grow them yourself (can be done even in a flat) or travel where you can get real tomatoes year-round.
