Cuisine American
Servings 3 people

Ingredients
  

  • 2 (2 small) Green tomatoes sliced thin (or thick if preferred)
  • 1/4 Cup Gluten Free Flour Otto's Natural's Cassava Flour is our choice
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper
  • Olive Oil Or your favorite oil

Instructions
 

  • Slice green tomatoes to preferred thickness.  I prefer thin as they cook faster.  Lightly salt and pepper the slices.  Add salt and pepper to your flour and mix.  Start heating about an inch of oil while battering your tomatoes. I like to use a cast iron skillet but any skillet that you have should work. Press sliced tomatoes firmly into flour mixture both sides (you may need to do this 2 times) and set aside until all are battered.  If you need more flour, add small amounts with salt and pepper and continue pressing tomatoes into the mixture and set aside.  You want the tomatoes to be covered with the flour well.  Place floured tomatoes into hot oil and flip over to other side when it starts browning.  This is about 3-5 minutes per side for me depending on how hot your oil is.   Allow other side to brown as well.  Take up on paper towel covered plate/platter .
