Stuffed Tomatoes with Minced Beef and Cheddar

Preheat the oven to 160 °C. Prepare a baking sheet and line it with baking paper.

Wash the tomatoes and cut them in half. Carefully scoop out the inside with a spoon and place the pulp in a medium-sized bowl. Add the minced beef, pressed garlic, egg, and the finely chopped basil and parsley. Season the mixture with salt and pepper. Mix everything well and try to drain as much liquid as possible from the mixture. Then fill the hollowed-out tomatoes with the meat mixture.

Bake the stuffed tomatoes for 15 minutes at 160 °C in the oven. Briefly remove the baking sheet, sprinkle the tomatoes with the grated Cheddar, and bake for another 5–10 minutes until the cheese is golden brown and melted. Garnish the tomatoes before serving with a dollop of sour cream and fresh spring onion rings. Enjoy your meal!
