A lovely way to use green tomatoes, works with red tomatoes too!

- Flour, enough for coating, on a plate
Egg, beaten for coating
- Italian cheese,ready grated type in a tub works best, shaken onto a plate
- Bacon fat, oil, or butter/olive oil to fry
Method
step 1
Slice the tomatoes about a 1/2'' or about 2 millimetres thick. Medium tomatoes cook best if you trim the top and the bottom off and then slice them in half.step 2
Dip each slice of the tomatoes into flour, shake off the excess.step 3
Dip each slice into the beaten egg and then lay onto the parmasan, turn them over to coat each sidestep 4
Fry the tomatoes in hot, but not smoking, fat. Turn after a few seconds to seal both sides. Reduce the heat and cook gentlystep 5
Turn the slices occasionally during cooking. Cook to your taste. I do them still firm.
