Fried Green Tomatoes with Vidalia Onion Relish

This recipe looks absolutely amazing and I am planning to make it this for holiday.

Ingredients:

• 3 or 4 large firm green tomatoes
• Salt
• 2 cups vegetable or peanut oil, for deep-frying
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 2 cups self-rising flour
• Freshly ground black pepper

 Vidalia Onion Relish:

• 2 white onions, diced
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1/2 cup rice wine vinegar
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons chopped chives

Instructions:

1. Slice the tomatoes 1/4-inch thick. Lay them out in a shallow baking pan and sprinkle with salt. Place the tomato slices in a colander and allow time for salt to pull the water out of the tomatoes, approximately 30 minutes.
2. In a skillet, heat the oil for deep-frying over medium-high heat.
3. Dip the tomatoes into buttermilk, then dredge them into flour with a dash of pepper. Deep-fry until golden brown. Keep warm.
4. For the Vidalia Onion Relish:
5. Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let marinate for a few hours.
