As a seasoned home cook, I've perfected this quick, economical tomato-mozzarella gratin—the ideal side for meats. Ready in minutes, it delivers sunny Italian flavors that everyone loves.
- 7 ripe tomatoes, perfect for stuffing
- 250 g mozzarella
- Olive oil
- Thyme, coriander, or parsley
- Salt and pepper
1. Preheat oven to 210°C (th. 7).
2. Wash and slice the tomatoes.
3. Cut mozzarella into strips.
4. In a lightly oiled gratin dish, layer tomatoes and cheese, finishing with mozzarella.
5. Season each tomato layer with salt, pepper, and herbs to taste.
6. Bake for 20 minutes.
For fellow food lovers, experiment with additions like mushrooms or prosciutto strips—it transforms into a standalone meal, no meat required. Buon appetito!
