(Unless the tomatoes are exceptionally watery, do not seed or drain them; they will better hold their shape and the natural juices will mingle nicely with the garlic and herbs.) Season generously with salt and pepper. Slice the garlic into thin chips and sprinkle over the tomatoes. Combine the bread crumbs and parsley, and scatter the mixture over the tomatoes. Drizzle them with oil.
- Bake, uncovered, for one hour, or until the tomatoes are soft, browned and sizzling. Serve immediately.

TOMATES à LA PROVENçALE
Nothing tastes so good to me as the intense flavor of a fresh tomato, picked at the height of summer, cooked down and seasoned with fresh parsley, garlic, and olive oil. This recipe exemplifies southern-French vegetable cooking at its best. I have served these tomatoes as an accompaniment to roast lamb (see page 234) or, in the summer, as a scrumptious first course. They are also great with lox, bagels, and cream cheese to break the fast of Yom Kippur.

Steps:
- Set a strainer in a bowl, and carefully squeeze the juice and the seeds out of the tomatoes, letting the juice drop into the bowl and reserving it. Discard the seeds. Season the cut sides of the tomatoes with coarse salt and freshly ground pepper.
- Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet. When very hot and beginning to smoke, carefully place the tomatoes, skin side down, in the oil. You may have to do this in batches so as not to crowd the pan. The tomatoes should not be touching. Sear until the skin starts to brown, about 10 minutes.
- Sprinkle the sugar over the cut sides, and flip, continuing to cook over high heat. When the tomatoes are caramelized and beginning to turn very dark, remove to a serving plate, and sprinkle the garlic and parsley over the top.
- Pour the reserved tomato juice into the pan, and reduce by half. Pour the reduced juice over the tomatoes, and serve warm or at room temperature.
Tips:
- Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes for the best results.
- If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
- Serve Tomates à la Provencale as a side dish, appetizer, or even as a main course with a side of bread or rice.
- You can also add other vegetables to this dish, such as zucchini, eggplant, or bell peppers.
- If you want a more rustic dish, you can roast the tomatoes whole instead of slicing them.
Conclusion:
Tomates à la Provencale is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to enjoy fresh tomatoes and herbs, and it is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you have a bunch of ripe tomatoes, give this recipe a try.
