I'm not the biggest fan of stuffed vegetables, but these tomatoes are honestly so delicious! Furthermore, this is my great grandmother's recipe, so you know its good! Time needed: 10 minutes Makes 10
Ingredients 5 ripe round large tomatoes (with seeds and juices removed) a bunch of parsley 1 hard boiled egg 120g canned tuna anchvoies or anchovy paste stale bread softened in vinegar and squeezed salt olive oil pepper Directions 1. Cut the tomatoes in half, remove the seeds and juices and place face down on a sheet of kitchen roll to dry for 5 minutes. 2. Add all the ingredients except the tomatoes to a blender and blend to form a thick paste. 3. Season the paste with salt, pepper and olive oil. 4. Place roughly one tablespoon of paste in each tomato and smoothen. Yes, this recipe has caramelised tomatoes in it. But you don't have to caramelise them, you can roast them or simply have them raw, if you prefer. The reason why I eat this dish so often is because I LOVE all the main ingredients, and combining them this way is just so delicious. Serves 2
