Fried Green Tomatoes

Community Supported Agriculture -I love the movie Fried Green Tomatoes and pretty much any film or book based on Southern culture. But, I've never prepared fried green tomatoes and I wasn't even sure that I would like them - boy was I wrong! These babies are fantastic!
When our farmers sent us fried green tomatoes along with recipes I thought, "Now's my chance!"

The firm green tomatoes (or partially green) really hold up well to the cooking process. I have not used that much oil in a skillet for anything in a long time, but they fried quickly and we drained them well. They were lightly coated and simply delicious - it really enhanced the tomato flavor. You've got to try it.

Fried Green Tomatoes

Slice green tomatoes into 1/2 inch slices. Combine flour, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl. Dip slices in the mix to coat both sides. Fry in hot oil on one side and then the other. Serve hot. (This couldn't be any easier.)
