Tips:

  • Choose firm, green tomatoes for frying. Unripe tomatoes will hold their shape better and have a less bitter taste.
  • Slice the tomatoes about 1/2 inch thick. Thicker slices will take longer to cook and may not get crispy.
  • Coat the tomatoes in seasoned flour before frying. This will help them to brown evenly and give them a crispy coating.
  • Use a heavy skillet or griddle for frying. This will help to prevent the tomatoes from sticking and will ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Heat the oil to medium-high heat before adding the tomatoes. This will help to prevent them from absorbing too much oil.
  • Fry the tomatoes in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the skillet. Overcrowding will cause the tomatoes to steam instead of fry.
  • Cook the tomatoes for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
  • Drain the tomatoes on paper towels before serving. This will help to remove any excess oil.
  • Serve the tomatoes immediately with horseradish cream or your favorite dipping sauce.
