We had our friends Laurie and Ben over for dinner a few nights ago, and I made fried green tomatoes for the first time (my moms recipe, of course). Well, my sister Andie just mentioned to me that she hasn't had those in a very long time and she's craving them. Here's the recipe, Andie. Mine turned out great.


You need:
3 or 4 Green tomatoes
About a cup of corn meal
2 egg whites + 1 Tbsp. water
2 Tbsp. flour

Mix flour & cornmeal in shallow bow. In separate bowl, beat egg whites & water.

Dip tomato slices in egg whites, coating both sides, then coat well with cornmeal mixture. Fry in batches in medium hot oil until golden brown.


Place on plates with paper towels between layers. Season with salt to taste.
Serve immediately and bask in the glory.
