Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

2 lb Green tomatoes 1/4 c Minced chives
4 ea Eggs 1 tb Salt
1 1/4 c Corn meal 1/4 ts Pepper, fresh ground
3/4 c Water 1/4 c Butter or margarine

Slice the tomatoes 1/2 inch thick, but do not peel or core. Drain
well between several thicknesses of paper toweling until most of the
moisture of the tomatoes is absorbed. While the tomatoes are
draining, make a batter by beating the eggs until light, then mixing

heavy iron skillet, heat the butter or margarine until bubbly. Dip
the tomato slices into batter, and brown quickly on both sides. Serve
at once.
