    Ever since I saw the film I *wanted* to like this dish, but all the recipes I tried were disgusting. This one I found absolutely heavenly. Thanks god I have loads of green tomatoes out there!!! :D

    In one bowl mix:
    1/2 cup flour, a teaspoon of salt, a teaspoon of sugar, a very generous pinch of hot chili powder (or more, or less to taste)

    In another bowl mix:
    One beaten egg, a dash of fresh milk

    Spread bread crumbles in a dish

    Cut 4 medium size firm green tomatoes in 1/2 cm thick slices.

    Dip them in the flour mix, than in the egg mix, the in the crumbles. Fry in abundant hot oil until lightly brown and crunchy.


    Mmmmmh!!!
