Tomatoes are easily H’s favourite food so I knew he would love this dish. I have found that by adding Big H’s favourite foods to new dishes he is more likely to try new things, and get used to new flavours more easily. This dish is easy to prepare and the coriander lime dressing is lovely and light. It would make a great accompaniment to your main meal
Tomatoes with a coriander lime dressing
Ingredients
- A variety of tomatoes in different sizes and shapes
- 1/4 cup olive oil + a little oil coat tomatoes
- 1/4 cup of packed finely chopped coriander (cilantro)
- 1/2 teaspoon ginger (either paste or grate fresh ginger very finely)
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- Juice of half a lime
- 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
- pinch of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon maple syrup
Instructions
- Place tomatoes in a baking dish or tray with a little olive oil; move the tray around to coat the tomatoes in the oil. Place in the oven under a hot grill (broiler) and cook for about 5-10 minutes. This will depend on the size of your tomatoes. I had a few really large tomatoes that I halved and quartered so they would cook evenly
For the dressing
- Place all the ingredients in a bowl and mix to combine. Add a little more lime juice or maple to adjust to your liking
- To serve, place tomatoes on a serving dish and spoon over the dressing
Fabulous. We adore tomatoes in our house as well. Love the sound of the coriander dressing.
Thanks so much Holly.
