Egg Baked in a Tomato
30 min
The top comes off the tomato and the flesh is scooped out, then an egg goes inside with cheese. The flesh is not wasted — it gets rubbed over the toasted bread.

Cut the tops off the tomatoes and scoop the flesh into a bowl, leaving firm walls.

Season with salt, pepper and herbs and add the grated cheese.

Cook at 180 °C (356 °F) for 20 minutes — the white sets and the cheese browns.
