Make this recipe a recipe that people in that category can eat. categories: ['vegetarian'], recipe: slice tomatoes about 1/4 inch thick, season with salt and pepper and then coat both sides with cornmeal. in a large skillet, heat enough bacon drippings to coat the bottom of the pan, and fry tomatoes until lightly browned on both sides. this recipe was from the back of fannie flagg's novel, "fried green tomatoes at the whistle stop cafe".

Target recipe: in a bowl, mix together the eggs and buttermilk. whisk in the 1 tbs flour, 1/2 the salt and 1/2 the pepper. soak the tomatoes in this liquid for about half an hour. whisk together the remaining flour, salt and pepper. heat about 1 inch of oil to 350*f in a heavy skillet. (i use my cast iron one). dredge the tomato slices, one at a time in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess. fry the slices in hot oil. do not crowd. (slices should not overlap as they cook). fry each side until it begins to turn brown. turn in the oil and fry until golden brown and crisp. drain on paper towel. salt to taste. serve with tomato chutney. yummy!
