Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 large firm green tomatoes
salt
2 c vegetable or peanut oil for frying
1 c buttermilk
2 c self-rising flour
fresh ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Slice the tomatoes about a 1/4-inch thick. Spread them out on a plate or baking dish and sprinkle with salt. Place the tomato slices in a colander and allow time for salt to pull the liquids out of the tomatoes, about 30 minutes.
  • 2. Heat the oil over a medium-high heat in a large skillet.
  • 3. Dip sliced tomatoes in buttermilk, and then dredge them in flour seasoned with pepper. Turn over in flour several times, pressing gently to get a nice thick batter. Fry until golden brown. NOTE: Don't crowd the tomatoes, fry a few at a time.
