Fried Green Tomatoes with Vidalia Onion Relish

Fried Green Tomatoes with Vidalia Onion Relish
A Southern-fried delicacy with Georgia sweetness.

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

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.
In a skillet, heat the oil for deep-frying over medium-high heat.
Dip the tomatoes into buttermilk, then dredge them into flour with a
dash of pepper. Deep-fry until golden brown. Keep warm.
For the Vidalia Onion Relish:
Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let
marinate for a few hours.
