Tomato Cakes
1 can (14-16 oz) chopped tomatoes
1 tube saltines (1/4 of a box), crushed
1/4 onion, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
Lard or solid vegetable shortening
Drain about 1/2 the liquid off the tomatoes. Mix together tomatoes,
onion, and crushed saltines. Let sit for 15-30 minutes so the
tomato juice soaks into the saltines. Stir again to even distribute
ingredients, and melt lard or shortening in skillet (cast iron
works best) over medium-high heat. When lard is hot enough (test
by flicking a drop of water in from a safe distance; if it sizzles
the lard is hot), shape mixture into patties and fry. Brown
thoroughly on both sides. Serve as side dish or main course; goes
very well with homemade macaroni an d cheese.
