Tomato fritters

A classic, traditional meze with various versions from around the country. One, quite famous, is the version from Santorini island. Santorini is the home of a specific type of tomato (the "waterless tomatoes of Santorini", which they get the moist they need from the rain the ground holds during the Winter months and the mist that appears over the ground during the Summer) with a wonderful sweet taste. The tomato fritters are always a most welcomed delicacy on a table with various mezedes regardless the type of tomato you might use
