Fried Green Tomatoes

A southern classic! Try to find uniformly sized tomatoes and slice them evenly.

Ingredients:
3 Tbs. unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
1 tsp. coarse kosher salt
1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup canola or sunflower oil
4 large green tomatoes, cut into 1/2-inch thick slices

~ In a shallow bowl, mix together the flour, cornmeal, salt, and pepper.
In a large pan, heat the oil over medium heat until hot, but not smoking. Dredge the tomato slices in the cornmeal mixture. Fry in the oil until golden brown, 3-5 minutes per side. Remove the tomato slices with a slotted spatula and drain on paper towels briefly. Serve hot.
