Ingredients
For the stuffed tomatoes
- 2 vine tomatoes
- small chunk white bread
- 1 garlic clove, chopped
- small handful fresh herbs, including basil, parsley, rosemary and thyme
- 1 tbsp olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the lamb
- 1 x 140g/5oz lamb leg steak
- 2 tsp olive oil

Method
Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
For the stuffed tomatoes, slice the tops off the tomatoes, scoop out some of the seeds and discard.

Press this mixture into the centre of the tomatoes and drizzle with olive oil. Place the stuffed tomatoes onto a non-stick baking sheet and bake in the oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the tomatoes are softened and the stuffing golden-brown.

Heat a griddle pan and chargrill the steak for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until cooked to your liking. Leave to rest for five minutes.
