5 ripe tomatoes, but still firm

Breadcrumbs

Remove the "eyes" from the tomatoes with a sharp knife tip
In the opposite half, create a small cap on each tomato to allow it to breathe
Place all the tomato halves in a baking dish and, on top of each one, place an anchovy fillet
Preheat the oven to 180°C
Mix the chopped garlic and herbs with breadcrumbs until a fine mixture forms
Season with salt and red pepper flakes
Spoon about a tablespoon's worth of this mixture over each tomato half
Finally, sprinkle with a little more breadcrumb and drizzle with plenty of olive oil
Bake for 30 minutes
Serve as an appetizer, accompanied by salad
Or as a topping for a fish-based dish.
