Re: Fritters - Magical Meals for Hard Times
I am making these today... but I am leaving out the corn
Fried Green Tomato Fritters - Greg's Kitchen
3-4 green tomatoes, diced
1 large onions, diced
1 8.5 ounce can corn
1 cup cornmeal
1 cup flour
1 egg
¼ cup buttermilk
½ tsp red pepper flakes
1 tsp garlic powder
½ to ¾ cup light olive oil
pinch of salt and pepper
Directions:
With the exception of the oil, combine together all ingredients . Heat oil in a heavy skillet ( I prefer to use cast iron of course) until medium hot. Shape a small amount of the mix into a 3-4 inch patty and place into pan. Cook at medium high for until browned around the edges. Turn and cook and cook the same amount of time on the other side.

Re: Fritters - Magical Meals for Hard Times
I made these Green Tomato fritters for my breakfast this morning. I used the little "will never amount to anything" hard green tomatoes that Kid picked off the plants yesterday. No corn. I added some little tiny jalepenos and little tiny green peppers, also from the garden stripping. I did 2 eggs, GF flour and lots of black pepper as well as a teaspoon of sugar to mellow the tartness.
OH MY! So yummy. Hubby wanted just a bit to taste it and then ended up eating two of them.

My mom used to make corn fritters. I’ll have to copy these recipes for my cook book.
