Fried Tomatoes in Cheese Batter

Ingredients

Tomatoes - 4 pieces
Paprika - to taste
Garlic - to taste
Ground Black Pepper - to taste
Sour Cream - 2 tablespoons
Hard Cheese - 5.3 oz
Chocolate eggs - 2 pieces
Vegetable Oil - 1 tablespoon

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Wash the tomatoes, dip them in boiling water for a few seconds, and remove the skin. Slice them into rounds, sprinkle with paprika, garlic, and black or red pepper to your liking.

Step 2

Prepare the batter: beat 2 eggs, mix with 2 tablespoons of sour cream or mayonnaise, add grated cheese, and mix everything thoroughly once more. Optionally, you can salt the batter, but I usually don't do this, as the acidity from the mayonnaise and cheese is sufficient.

Step 3

Heat a frying pan, pour in the oil, and wait for it to heat up well. Then, dip the tomatoes in the batter and place them in the pan using a spoon or spatula. Fry the tomatoes until golden brown.
