Ingredients:


8 medium tomatoes

200 grams red lentils or similar.

1 medium Onion -- (cut in thin strips)

1 medium carrot -- (diced)

1 medium celery stick -- (diced)

1 pieces vegetable flavour (oxo or similar)

1 dash or sprinkle of ground cumin

3 tablespoons broth or balsamic vinegar or wine for sauteeing

1/3 cup some bread crumbs -- ( approx 3 large spoons)

1 bunch fresh coriander or substitute

1 teaspoon salt to taste/optional

1 teaspoon pepper -- (to taste/optional)
 

Preparation / Directions:


Boil lentils (salt to taste). Put vegetable cube in and boil for 15 minutes. At the same time, saute the onion. When brown add carrot, celery and cook by moving the mix with a spoon (I use a wooden spoon). Add red lentils, bread crumbs and incorporate with vegetables. At this point is a good idea to test for taste with salt, pepper and cummin. At the end, add coriander, mix and put aside. Cut the top of tomatoes and remove core, ( I save it to use as a sandwich spread), drain juice and fill them with stuffing. Bake for 45 min on Low.
