Green Tomato Gratin Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Generously butter a gratin or baking dish large enough to accommodate the tomato halves in one layer. Place the bread in a food processor, and pulse until crumbled with no large pieces. Transfer to a small bowl. Add the parsley, and salt and pepper to taste, and drizzle with the melted butter. Toss to combine, and set aside.
• Place tomato halves in the prepared baking dish, cut-side up. Season with salt and pepper, drizzle with honey, and sprinkle crumb mixture on top. Bake, uncovered, until tomatoes have softened, 35 to 40 minutes. Increase oven heat to broil. Place tomatoes under broiler until crumbs are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Serve.

Steps:

• Toss 2 pints grape tomatoes, 4 smashed garlic cloves, 1/4 cup olive oil and 2 teaspoons fresh thyme in an ovenproof skillet; cook over medium-high heat until the tomatoes are soft, 8 minutes. Mix 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1/2 cup each breadcrumbs and parmesan; sprinkle over the tomatoes and broil until golden, 3 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place the tomatoes in a 9 x 13-inch ceramic dish. Add the 1 1/2 tablespoons of olive oil, thyme, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and toss together. Spread the tomatoes evenly in the pan.
• Place the garlic, parsley, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until the garlic is finely chopped. Add the bread cubes and process until the bread is in crumbs. Add the 1/4 cup of olive oil and pulse a few times to blend. Sprinkle the crumbs evenly over the tomatoes.
• Bake the gratin for 40 to 45 minutes, until the crumbs are golden and the tomato juices are bubbling. Serve hot or warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Oil a 2-quart baking dish or gratin with olive oil. Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil, and fill a bowl with ice water. Stem the chard and wash the leaves in two changes of water. Rinse the stems if wide and dice. Set them aside. When the water comes to a boil, add the chard leaves and blanch for about one minute. Transfer to the ice water, cool for a minute and drain. Squeeze out excess water and chop. Set aside.
• Season the sliced tomatoes and the cornmeal lightly with salt and pepper. Dredge the tomatoes in the cornmeal. Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a heavy nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, and fry the sliced tomatoes for two minutes on each side, just until lightly colored. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat in the skillet in which you cooked the tomatoes, and add the onion and the chopped chard stems. Cook, stirring, until tender, about five minutes. Add a generous pinch of salt and the garlic, and cook together for another minute, until the garlic is fragrant. Add the thyme and the chopped chard, and stir together for minute over medium heat. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Beat the eggs in a large bowl with 1/2 teaspoon salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. Whisk in the milk. Stir in the cheese and the chard mixture. Transfer to the gratin dish. Layer the tomatoes over the top. Place in the oven, and bake 30 to 40 minutes, until set and beginning to brown.

Steps:

• Arrange one layer of tomatoes in the bottom of 1 ½ quart casserole.
• Sprinkle with sugar, salt and pepper 1/3 of bread crumbs and 1/3 cheese.
• Repeat layers twice omitting the cheese from the top.
• Dot butter over the bread crumbs on top.
• Cover and bake at 400 degrees for one hour.
• Add remaining cheese, bake uncovered until cheese melts.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Grease the sides and bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• Arrange 1/3 of the Potatoes in the baking dish.
• Top the Potatoes with 1/3 of the sliced Green Peppers.
• Top the Green Peppers with 1/3 of the sliced Tomatoes.
• Mix the melted Butter with the Olive Oil.
• Drizzle 1/3 of the Butter, Olive Oil mixture over vegetables.
• Season with 1/3 of the salt and pepper.
