about this recipe for stuffed tomatoes
The great thing about stuffed tomatoes is that you can fill them with whatever you want.
This time, we filled them with two different types of rice: brown jasmine rice and black rice. The idea was to add a little flair to the dish, but you can make it with any rice you like best or whatever you have on hand!
We made the classic version of stuffed tomatoes, in case you've never made them and want to start from the basics.
And we also bring you two more twisted options of the classic, some stuffed tomatoes 2.0
Greetings
And happy holidays!

Stuffed Tomatoes Recipe
the classics and the reworked ones
The base
- Let's put a little oil in a pan and add some garlic milk, or chopped garlic if you don't have any. Once it's hot, add the jasmine rice and brown it until shiny, or pearly.
- We add three times the amount of water per serving of rice and cook it until tender. Once cooked, transfer to a plate and chill. Repeat with the brown rice.
- Cut the tomatoes open from the top and scoop out the entire inside, including the stem. Once all the flesh is removed, place them face down on a plate. It's important to make sure they're completely hollow and dry so they don't soak the filling.
- Let's chop the fleshy part of the tomato, discarding the seeds. We'll also chop the green onion, carrot, rehydrated sundried tomatoes, and bell pepper.
- Cut the bacon, cooked chicken and anchovies into small pieces.
- Finally, we'll prepare the sauce: mix the mayonnaise and mustard with cream cheese. The proportions depend on whether you want it closer to mayonnaise or cream cheese.

I always look at you from Montevideo.
Pauli, a tip: to remove all the tomato pulp, nothing beats a really good toothed ice cream scoop, one of those metal ones for scooping out scoops of ice cream, but not the movable ones, just the one that's a simple spoon. It
never fails.
I learn a lot from you. You give us great advice. And great milpre.
Brilliant!! From Santiago del Estero, I congratulate you for the recipes, but above all, for the way you share them! I always hated cooking. Now with a kid and a husband, I have no choice but to cook, and you're a true force!
Stuffed tomatoes! A must-have in summer.
