This dish is the perfect accompaniment to roasts. The tomatoes can be prepared a day in advance, and then popped into the oven before the roast, in particular beef. If vine tomatoes are unavailable, large beef tomatoes can be substituted, cutting the tomatoes in half and then stuffing each half (in this case roast for only 30 minutes). |
