  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    How to make stuffed tomatoes with ham and cheese? First, prepare the necessary ingredients. It is very important to initially choose the right tomatoes. The tomatoes should be juicy, but strong and dense. Soft fruits do not hold their shape well; during processing and baking, they will spread into a shapeless mass and spoil the appearance of the dish. Pink tomatoes are ideal.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    Wash the tomatoes and dry them. Cut off the tops and carefully, being careful not to damage the walls, remove all the pulp. You can do this with a regular teaspoon or a special noisette spoon. Do not throw away the pulp, you will need it later. If the tomatoes are large, like mine, then three pieces will be enough. If the tomatoes are medium, then 4-5.

  3. STEP 3

    Now start preparing the filling. Remove all seeds and liquid from the cut-out portion and leave only the pulp. The filling should not be too watery. Cut the tomato pulp and previously cut caps into small cubes.
