FRIED GREEN TOMATOES
Steps:
- Select the greenest tomatoes available. Wash, remove stem, and slice into 1/4-inch slices; place in bowl or platter. Mix flour, cornmeal, salt, and pepper just enough milk to make a thick batter (the consistency of pancake batter). Heat oil in skillet over high heat: reduce heat to medium-high. Dip tomato slices into batter, wiping against bowl to remove excess batter, and place in hot oil. When browned on both sides, remove from oil and place in colander to drain (this will keep tomatoes from becoming soggy). To serve, stand up tomatoes like wheels in a serving bowl.
