Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup cornmeal
  • 1 teaspoon dried mint
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 3 large green tomatoes, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices

  • Rose Vinaigrette

How to Make It

Step 1

Whisk together first 5 ingredients in a bowl until smooth; dip tomato slices evenly in batter.

Step 2

Pour oil to a depth of 2 inches into a large heavy skillet. Fry tomato slices, in batches, in hot oil over medium-high heat 4 minutes on each side or until slices are golden.

Step 3

Arrange lettuce evenly on 6 plates; top each with 2 tomato slices. Sprinkle evenly with walnuts; drizzle with Rose Vinaigrette. Garnish, if desired.

Step 4

* For extra-crispy fried tomatoes, dip in batter twice.
