Tomato Fritters

Looks like it will never work when you mix it, even looks wrong when you are spooning into the pan. Somehow all comes together when cooking
  • 10 to 12 small tomatoes, green or ripe, cubed or chunked into bite size pieces
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cider vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder or onion flakes, optional
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1/4 cup crushed cornflakes
  • 1 tablespoon crumbled crisp bacon
  • 1/3 cup butter or corn oil


Mix well your cut tomatoes, flour, cornflakes, salt, pepper, sugar, vinegar, onion, garlic, crumbled bacon and butter or corn oil. Take heaped tablespoons full of mixture.

Place into palm of hand to shape into rounds about 1/2 inch thick. Place into medium preheated nonstick coated skillet.

Cook until desired golden brown. Turn only once. Serve hot as side dish or with honey or molasses.
