A TASTE OF MYSTERY COOKBOOK

FRIED GREEN TOMATOES

In Buried Diamonds, Claire asks Tom about these, as it’s the only recipe she’s familiar with that calls for green tomatoes.

Ingredients:

3 tablespoons bacon grease
4 firm green tomatoes sliced
2 eggs, beaten
Flour
Milk
Salt
Pepper

Preparation:

Heat bacon grease in a heavy frying pan. Dip tomatoes in eggs, then in bread crumbs. Slowly fry them in the bacon grease until golden brown on both sides. Remove to a plate.

For each tablespoon of grease left in the pan, stir in one tablespoon of flour and blend well; then stir in one cup warm milk and cook until thickened, stirring constantly. Add salt and pepper to taste. Pour over the tomatoes and serve hot.
