Baked Tomatoes

4 beef steak (marinade) tomatoes
4 tbl. freshly chopped parsley
2 gloves garlic, crushed
65g / 2 1/2 oz. stale bread, dampened, and squeezed dry
2 tbl. extra virgin oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tsp. fresh marjoram or oregano, torn
2 tsp. pickled capers, drained
2 tbl. Stancato’s balsamic vinaigrette dressing
Parsley sprigs (optional garnish)
2 birdseye chillies, sliced (optional garnish)
Serves 4

  1. Halve the tomatoes horizontally. Put the parsley, garlic, damp crumbled breadcrumbs, half of the oil and all of the seasonings with the herbs and the capers into a food processor. Whisk briefly. Set tomatoes on a baking dish, cut sides up.
  2. Scatter some stuffing mixture over each and a little cheese on top. Bake in an oven preheated to 200 degrees C/ 400 degrees F gas mark 6 to 30 minutes. Turn up the heat to 220 degrees C/ 425 degrees F gas mark 7 to 5 minutes, at the end, to crisp the tops.
  3. Serve warm, drizzled with balsamic vinaigrette, the remaining olive oil and some finely sliced chilli, if preferred.
