Juicy, aromatic, with a sweet-spicy taste - spicy tomatoes baked in the oven. Step-by-step recipe with a photo. Video recipe.
If you love tomatoes and do not know what else to cook from them, then I suggest baking them in the oven. The recipe is simple but delicious. Tomatoes with a bouquet of aromatic herbs and garlic … it is divine! They can be baked with olive oil, with fragrant thyme, basil, ciniza, hot pepper, etc. In addition, there is absolutely no preparation here, except perhaps to wash the tomatoes, peel the garlic and preheat the oven.
Oven-baked tomatoes are the perfect addition to a side dish of potatoes, pasta or rice. They can also be served as an independent side dish for meat or poultry. They go well with kebabs or steaks. Another appetizer is combined with fish or other seafood in the company of chilled white wine.
Please note that doctors say that a ripe tomato is a source of vital substances like potassium, magnesium, iron. And also - lycopene - a strong natural antioxidant and serotonin "hormone of happiness"! And what is interesting, after heat treatment, baked fruits are much healthier than fresh ones! Therefore, pay attention to the proposed recipe.

Step by step cooking of spicy tomatoes baked in the oven, recipe with photo:
1. Pour vinegar, vegetable oil, and soy sauce into a shallow container. Add the mustard and minced garlic.
2. Add sumac, cumin, black pepper, salt and finely chopped hot pepper.
3. Stir the sauce until smooth and smooth.
4. Wash the tomatoes and dry with a paper towel. Select fruits that are elastic and dense, because very soft will quickly turn into a mushy consistency. Place them in a baking dish and pierce each fruit with a wooden toothpick to release steam during baking. Otherwise, in the oven, the peel of the tomatoes will crack and all the juice will flow out.
5. Pour the sauce over the tomatoes.
6. Preheat oven to 180 degrees and send the tomatoes for 20-30 minutes. The specific cooking time depends on the oven and the size of the pilaf. Therefore, periodically monitor them so as not to miss the moment of readiness. Serve ready-made spicy tomatoes baked in the oven warm or chilled.
