Fried Green Tomato and Mozzarella "BLTS" from David 1 pound sliced bacon, cooked until crisp, drained on paper towels 4 medium green tomatoes, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal Salt to taste 1/4 cup vegetable oil (more if needed) 8 large slices white sandwich bread 3/4 pound mozzarella, cut into 1/4-inch thick slices Fresh basil leaves
Preheat broiler. In a small bowl coat tomato slices evenly with cornmeal and season with salt. In a large heavy skillet heat oil over medium heat until hot and cook tomatoes until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes, adding more oil if needed. Transfer to paper towels to drain. On a baking sheet broil one side of bread slices about 3 inches from heat until golden. Make sandwiches by layering, on untoasted sides of bread, mozzarella, a few basil leaves, fried tomatoes and bacon. Top with remaining bread slices, toasted sides up.
Makes 4 sandwiches.
