Baked Tomatoes with Coriander

April 7, 2011


This delicious dish is perfect for breakfast or lunch. The rich sweetness of the tomatoes is perfectly complimented by spicy coriander and garlic.

Serve on thick slices of sourdough toast with avocado. Serves 6


6 medium vine-ripened tomatoes, halved

6 cloves of garlic, finely chopped

Extra virgin olive oil, generous slug

Bunch corinader, finely chopped

Salt and Pepper

Preheat oven to 180 degrees C. Lay tomatoes on a baking tray, insides up. Mix garlic with olive oil, salt and pepper in a small bowl and brush over tomatoes so each tomato half is fully coated. Bake tomatoes for 15-20 minutes, or until they soften (you still want them to retain their shape), then place under a hot grill for a few minutes until the tops blacken ever-so-slightly.

Sprinkle coriander over tomatoes and serve immediately.
