| INGREDIENTS: | ||
| 2 pounds green tomatoes | 4 eggs | 1-1/4 cups corn meal |
| 3/4 cup water | 1/4 cup minced chives | 1 tablespoon salt |
| 1/4 teaspoon pepper, fresh ground | 1/4 cup butter or margarine | |
| 1 | Slice the tomatoes 1/2 inch thick, but do not peel or core. Drain well on paper towels until most of the moisture of the tomatoes is absorbed. |
| 2 | While the tomatoes are draining, make the batter. Beat the eggs then mix in the corn meal, water, minced chives, salt and pepper. In a large iron skillet, heat the butter or margarine until very hot. Dip the tomato slices into batter, and brown quickly on both sides. Serve hot. |
