1 Preheat the oven to 180C/Gas 4. Slice the top off each tomato and scoop out the middle. Turn upside down to drain. Roughly chop the scooped-out tomato flesh.

Add half the chopped tomato (you can use the rest in a pasta sauce) and the stock. Simmer for 10 to 15 minutes until the rice has absorbed most of the liquid. Check the seasoning.
3 Spoon the rice mixture into the tomatoes and arrange in a baking dish. Mix together the breadcrumbs and grated cheese and sprinkle on top. Bake the tomatoes for 15 to 20 minutes until the topping is golden.
