Fried Green Tomatoes
Ever since that movie, you know the one... I've wondered about fried green tomatoes. People really eat green tomatoes? You bet they do! And What a great way to make use of end-of-the-season tomatoes.



Ingredients:
3 slices of bacon
4 medium green tomatoes
1 cup fine ground cornmeal
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup milk

Directions:
Fry the bacon in heavy skillet. Transfer it to absorbant paper. Cut each tomato into 1/2" thick slices. Put sliced tomatoes on absorbant paper. Mix together the cornmeal, salt and pepper. Dip tomato slices into a small bowl of milk remove and coat with your cornmeal mixture. Fry tomatoes in the bacon fat over medium heat until the cornmeal browns, about 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Can be served over rice or pasta and smothered with a cream sauce and crawfish tails or shrimp.
