Number Of Ingredients 10

4 -6 tablespoons butter or 4 -6 tablespoons oil, for frying
4 slices country ham, about 1/2 inch thick
2 -3 green tomatoes, cored, sliced 1 1/2 inch thick, and soaked in milk
all-purpose flour, seasoned with
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 pinch sugar
reserved cooking fat
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups milk

Steps:

  • Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a heavy skillet and sauté the ham slices about 3 minutes on each side. Remove the ham to a heated platter and keep warm.
  • Drain the tomatoes and dust them with the seasoned flour. Add more butter to the pan if necessary and fry the tomatoes 3 minutes on each side or until tender, sprinkling each side with a little sugar. Remove and drain on paper towels, then arrange on the platter with the ham.
  • While the tomatoes are cooking, make the gravy:Pour off all but 3 tablespoons of the cooking fat. Stir in the flour and cook, stirring, for 1 to 2 minutes. Slowly whisk in the milk. Stir constantly until thickened, about 4 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Pour the gravy over the ham and tomatoes and serve immediately.

I thought the tomatoes were a bit bland. I would recommend adding some more seasoning to the breading.

This dish was a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I would try frying the tomatoes in less oil next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the tomatoes came out soggy. I think I would try frying them for a shorter amount of time next time.

I added some chopped bacon to the gravy and it was delicious! The smokiness of the bacon really complemented the tomatoes.
