Time 20 min
Ideal as side dish or brunch feature, these easy-to-prepare tomatoes can be served either warm or at room temperature. Stuffed with a simple mix of bread crumbs (panko in this case for a better crunch), finely minced garlic and chopped parsley and then drizzled with a little bit of olive oil, they look as good as they taste.
