| Author Notes: | Here's an elegant side dish that puts all those extra green tomatoes you have to use. Greek style feta or French style chevres (both goat cheeses) work equally well here. |
| Ingredients: |
4 medium green tomatoes 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar 2 teaspoons minced fresh oregano leaves 1 cup crumbled goat cheese (feta or chevre) 4 teaspoons olive oil salt and coarsely ground fresh ground black pepper |
| Instructions: |
Cut tomatoes into 1/2 inch thick slices. Coat a shallow baking dish with oil. Place tomato slices, in a single, overlapping layer, in the bottom of the baking dish. Sprinkle tomatoes with vinegar scatter minced oregano over tomato slices. Top with crumbled goat cheese and drizzle with olive oil. Broil 5-8 inches below a preheated broiler and broil until tomatoes are hot and cheese is just starting to brown, about 7-8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and serve. |

A wonderful twist
Written by: J Holmes12 August 2008 |
| I'm enjoying my first summer of home-grown tomatoes, and knew there must be something better to do with the green ones than simply bread and fry them. This was a wonderful alternative. I used fresh oregano (clipped moments before mincing) and a strong balsamic. I cut them to abour 1/4 inch rather than 1/2 inch, and broiled them about 5-inches from the flame but, as the recipe suggests, I would do them for a little longer at 8 inches...long enough for the tomatoes to soften a little more without burning the goat cheese. I imagine feta and/or other fresh herbs would be wonderful, as well (scallions or garlic and thyme?). |
