Tomatoes with cheese, garlic, and mayonnaise - appetizer

That's how you easily and quickly make a juicy, appetizing, and very tasty burger at home. I must say, you and your loved ones will want to eat these burgers more often. Enjoy your meal.

Rinse the tomatoes well under running water. Cut off the tops and carefully remove the seeds and pulp, creating small tomato baskets. You can use a knife or spoon for this operation.

You will get blanks, as in the photo. Set them aside for now.

Slice the chili pepper into small pieces. Adjust the spiciness according to your taste. If you don't like spicy food, exclude the chili from the recipe.

Peel and finely chop the garlic or pass it through a press. Garlic will give the appetizer aroma and pungency. If you like a stronger garlic taste, you can add more cloves. But do not completely remove it from the recipe. The taste of the tomatoes will be different.

Grate the semi-hard cheese (I chose Edam) using a coarse grater. You can choose any type of cheese that you like and pairs well with tomatoes. You can even use processed cheese. But I still recommend using semi-hard cheese.

Boil the eggs until hard-boiled, peel them and grate them on a grater.

Chop the herbs and place them in a blue mixing bowl. Add all the remaining ingredients, including mayonnaise. Adjust the amount of mayonnaise according to your preference. If you prefer it drier, add less, and if you prefer it juicier, add more mayonnaise. Stir until the cheese and garlic are well mixed to a homogeneous mass. You can use other sauces instead of mayonnaise, such as yogurt-based sauce or sour cream, to add freshness and lightness to the stuffed tomatoes.

Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Gently mix all the ingredients in the bowl.

Fill each tomato with the cheese, garlic, and mayonnaise filling. You can easily do this using a pastry bag with a decorating tip or simply a spoon. Try to fill the tomatoes evenly to make them look beautiful and appetizing.

Garnish the appetizer with fresh herbs. You can use parsley, basil, or dill - your choice. In addition to herbs, you can use other ingredients for decoration. For example, slice tender slices of olives or sprinkle the appetizer with finely chopped green onions. Serve the tomatoes immediately or refrigerate them for a while. Tomatoes with cheese, garlic, and mayonnaise go well with crusty bread or fragrant crackers. Enjoy your meal!
