Quick Fried Green Tomatoes
Picked from the vine before they have fully ripened, firm green tomatoes are a great addition to stir-fries.
INGREDIENTS | SERVES 4
- ½ teaspoon salt
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- ¼ cup cornmeal
- 3 green tomatoes, cut in slices
- ½ inch thick
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Combine the salt, black pepper, oregano, and cornmeal in a bowl.
