Provençal Tomatoes

Provençal Tomatoes is an easy dish which sums up Provençal cooking because it is simple, to the point and making the most of fresh ingredients. Simply fresh tomatoes, parsley or basil, breadcrumbs, garlic, oil, and cheese if you wish, baked and excellent!

Tomatoes are widely used in salads, daubes, ragus, tarts, sauces and soups. In fact, they crop up just about everywhere; stuffed, sun-dried, preserved and roasted.

One of the finest tomato dishes I ever tasted was a simple bowl of fresh cut up tomatoes that had been drizzled with a little oil and sprinkled with herbs, it was superb.

This is what that recipe is exactly only roasted in the oven to tomato perfection.

Ingredient List

• ripe tomatoes
• parsley or basil
• breadcrumbs
• fresh garlic
• olive oil
• if you wish, sprinkle with gruyere or parmesan cheese

How To Make This Simple Dish

1. Slice the tomatoes through their middles and drain them, cut-side down on kitchen towel.
2. Fry the tomatoes, again cut-side down, in a little olive oil for 5 to 10 minutes on a medium heat.
3. Place them in a baking tray, cut-side up this time and sprinkle with the herbs, garlic, and breadcrumbs.
4. Season with salt and pepper, drizzle with olive oil, cheese if you are using, and pop into the oven at 375°F/190°C/Gas 5 for 20 minutes until the tomatoes are crispy and golden on the top.
