Ingredients

  • 8 pieces Tomato, red

  • 7 spoon Oil, olive

  • 2 piece Onion, raw

  • 2 pod Garlic, fresh

  • 120 g Breadcrumbs, dried

  • 1 handful Olives, black, in brine

  • 8 pieces Fish, anchovy fillets in oil

  • 8 twig Parsley, fresh

  • 2 twigs Spices, oregano, dried

  • 4 spoon Cheese, Parmesan, hard

Steps

  1. Thoroughly wash the tomatoes and dry them completely. Using a sharp knife, cut off the tops and scoop out the seeds with a coffee spoon, discarding them. Be careful not to damage the skin. Place the tomatoes on a paper towel to drain, with the cut side facing down.

  2. Peel the onion and garlic, then finely chop them. Drain the anchovy fillets and olives, and chop them finely. Rinse the parsley and oregano sprigs under running water and dry them. Remove the leaves from the sprigs and chop them finely.

  3. Place a pan on the stove and heat 5 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the onion to the hot oil and sauté over low heat for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent. Add the garlic and cook for another minute. Remove the pan from the heat and mix in the breadcrumbs, chopped olives, anchovies, and herbs.

  4. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Stuff the tomatoes with the prepared mixture and place them in a deep baking dish. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the top of the filling, then drizzle the tomatoes with the remaining oil.

  5. Bake the tomatoes in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the filling turns golden brown on top.

  6. Remove the baked tomatoes from the oven, serve them on plates, and offer them immediately or slightly cooled.
