Appetizers and SnacksTONY'S AT HOME TOMATO CRISPS
"This recipe, from Steve Konarik, catering chef at Tony's, is doubled easily. The crisps are best served immediately."
Oil for deep-frying
5 (3- to 4-inch-round) beefsteak tomatoes
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup club soda
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 to 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Heat oil to 350 degrees F.
Cut tomatoes into 1/2-inch-thick slices.
In a large bowl, combine salt, pepper, flour, club soda, crushed red pepper, thyme and oregano. Whisk smooth, then rub batter on both sides of tomato slices, coating lightly.
Place a few tomato slices at a time in the hot oil and fry until brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
Place fried tomato slices on ungreased baking sheets and sprinkle with grated Parmesan.
Bake in a 250 degree F oven until golden brown on top, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from oven and turn over tomato slices. Sprinkle again with Parmesan and bake until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes more. Remove from oven and cool on a wire rack.
Makes about 50 slices
