Fried Tomatoes With Garlic (Banadoora Maqliya Ma' Thoom)

Recipe #136209 | 15 min | 5 min prep | add private note

A yummy-looking mezze dish, posted for World Tour 05. Do not try to cook more than two servings at a time or the tomatoes will end up overcooked. This type of tomato appetizer is great scooped up onto Arabic bread.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 4 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1/2 small hot pepper, very finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 2 large firm tomatoes, thickly sliced
  • salt and pepper

Directions

  1. 1
    Thoroughly mix the garlic with the pepper, salt, and hot pepper; then stir in the parsley and set aside.
  2. 2
    Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the tomato slices and cook for about a minute on one side; then turn and sprinkle slices with the garlic, hot pepper, and parsley mixture. Continue to cook for another minute, shaking the pan occasionally; then turn the slices again and cook until they are done, but not mushy.
  3. 3
    Slide the tomato slices onto a plate, and serve immediately.

These are delicious. I left out the hot pepper, as Little Miss (DD) loves tomatoes and wanted to eat some. I only had small tomatoes so I used five. Followed the instructions as written. Next time I may use a little more fresh parsley. Perfect side dish with a green salad. Thank you Beck D

    This is really good! I've made it several times now, and it's always tasted and looked and smelled so wonderful every time. A great way to spice up your tomatoes when you get tired of the usual recipes and salads.

    Very good. I cooked some until they were really brown on one side and that was the best one. Loved the garlic and pepper. I turned a few a third time to cook the garlic for a few seconds and it added ann extra goodness. I will definitely make these again!

    I recently had an overabundance of tomatoes and made this to help use some of them up! Very nice, i did sprinkle some parmesan cheese on top!
