Fried Green Tomatoes

Tools

Fried Green Tomatoes

1) One baseball sized Green Tomato.
2) 1/2 Cup Rice Milk...Soy Milk or any other 'Milk' will work here.
3) 1/2 to 3/4 Cup of ANY Flour, Breadcrumb, Cornmeal...etc...I use Rice Flour.
4) 1 Tablespoon Seasoning...use a heavy/strong coarse ground seasoning like a Steak Seasoning.
5) Oil...ya' know... frying foods CORRECRLY adds VERY LITTLE FAT to the food.
1/4 inch of Trans-Fat Free/Cholesterol Free Cooking Oil.

Directions: Messy, but EASY and OHHH so GOOD!
1) Heat the OIL in a pan small enough to fry the slices of one Green Tomato at a time.
2) Wash and dry the Green Tomato(s).
3) Slice them 'across the equator'...into side-to-side slices..about 1/4" to 1/2" thin.
4) Pat the slices dry with paper towles/cloth towles.
5) Put the slices in 'Milk' of your choice...do not overcroud the pan...do this in BATCHES.
6) Drain off the 'Milk'...do not expect the Slices to look white.
7) Dredge/Toss the Milked Slices into the FLOUR of your choice, mixed with the SEASONING.
8) Place each Milked-Dredged Green Tomato Slice into the HOT OIL...be careful here.
9) Let them brown for 3-5 minutes...flip once and brown for 2-3 minutes more.

Serve Hot...alone or as a Sandwitch Filling!

Eat, Live, Enjoy!

What a Bummer! I LOVED this segment of the morning show! It also seemed like it was a fun part of the morning for the news crew. Hopefully something as interesting will take its place...
