Tomato and parmesan gratin

Tomato and Parmesan Gratin is a delightful and easy-to-make side dish that beautifully combines ripe tomatoes, crunchy bread crumbs, and savory Parmesan cheese. This dish is perfect for showcasing fresh tomatoes and makes a great addition to any meal.

Ingredients:

1 garlic clove
3g
2 tomatoes
330g
1 cup bread crumbs
120g
2 tbsp olive oil
27g
1 tbsp basil
5g
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
33g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare Ingredients:
- Garlic: Peel and finely mince the garlic clove.
- Tomatoes: Wash the tomatoes and slice them into 1/4 inch thick rounds.
- Basil: Finely chop the basil if not already chopped.
3. Prepare the Topping:
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the bread crumbs, minced garlic, olive oil, chopped basil, and grated parmesan cheese. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly distributed and the bread crumbs are moistened by the oil.
4. Assemble the Gratin:
- Arrange the tomato slices in a single layer in a lightly greased baking dish.
- Evenly sprinkle the bread crumb mixture over the tomato slices, ensuring each piece is well-coated.
5. Bake:
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and crispy and the tomatoes are tender.
6. Serve:
- Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. This dish can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.
7. Optional Garnish:
- For an extra touch, you can garnish the gratin with some additional fresh basil leaves before serving.

Tips:

- Use ripe and firm tomatoes for the best flavor and texture.

- Substitute Italian seasoning for basil if you prefer a different herb flavor.

- For added richness, drizzle a bit more olive oil over the top before baking.

- Experiment with different types of bread crumbs, such as panko, for extra crunch.

- Add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes if you prefer a bit of heat.

- If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheat in the oven to maintain the crispiness.

Your delicious Tomato and Parmesan Gratin is now ready to serve! Enjoy this flavorful and satisfying dish as a side with your favorite main course, or even on its own. The combination of the melted cheese and crisp breadcrumbs with the tender, juicy tomatoes is simply irresistible.
