Recipe by Graham 

Tomatoes compliment sausages and bacon in a fried meal and they can either be grilled or fried, depending on your preference. Allow for one medium size tomato per person.

If you feel that it's really too easy to have a recipe for fried tomatoes, please read my introduction. There, I say that the only assumptions I have made about you, the visitor to NeedaRecipe.com, is that you know what an egg is, and that you can tell the difference between the sharp end of a knife and the blunt end! Because of this, you may find some of the recipes a little elementary. If this is the case, don't worry because it means that you have a head start on some of your fellow site visitors. Even visitors who have some basic culinary skills will find that this site contains plenty of useful ideas and short cuts that they have not come across before.

How to Cook Fried Tomatoes

  1. Cut the tomatoes into thick slices (about ¼" - 6-7mm thick). Sprinkle liberally with salt and dust with white pepper (one of the very few occasions that Meester Graham uses white pepper but, for this recipe, it adds a distinct flavour). Warm a smear of oil in a frying pan and add the tomatoes. Cook over a medium heat for about five minutes, turning once, until soft.
GRAHAM'S HOT TIP:
Sprinkle additional salt and pepper on the tomatoes after you have turned them in the pan.
