Stuffed Tomato


This is a recipe in which stuffed tomatoes are baked/cooked.Stuffing can be anything, I am using potato filling as it is a big hit in my family.
Ingredients
Tomato 4 large and firm
Potato 2 large
Onion 1
Turmeric pw 1/2 tsp
Garam masala 1 tsp
Coriander pw 1/2 tsp
Cumin seeds 1/2 tsp
Salt
Oil 2 tbsp

Method
1. Wash the tomatoes and cut the tops off.Remove the pulp of the tomatoes.
2. Boil,peel and roughly mash the potatoes.
3. Now heat oil in a pan and add cumin seeds.When it begin to crackle add chopped onions.Fry it till golden in colour.
4. Add the potatoes,salt and other masalas.Mix well and fry for 2-3 minutes.
5. Take generous amount of this mixture and fill the tomatoes with it.
6. Drizzle some oil on each tomato and bake them in a preheated oven at 400 F for 20-25 minutes.

Note: 1. Instead of baking you can also cook the tomatoes in a kadhai.
2. For the filling you can also use paneer/cottage cheese or a mixture of potato-paneer.
