Method:

Preheat the oven to 200°C.

Slice the root ends of the tomatoes off and scoop the seeds and excess juice out of each tomato. Place onto a greased baking tray.

Heat the oil in a frying pan and sauté the onion until soft and glossy, add the garlic and nutmeg and fry for a few seconds. Remove from the heat.

Place the spinach, fried onion mixture, feta(reserve 6-8 cubes for assembling) and half of the parmesan in a food processor. Blitz until smooth and well combined. Season to taste.

Spoon the spinach mixture into each tomato. Push a cube of feta into each filled one.

Combine the breadcrumbs and remaining parmesan and sprinkle generously on top of the tomatoes.

Roast for 15 – 20 minutes (depending on size).

Serve as is or try with herby couscous and grilled lamb chops or chicken.
