I love tomatoes. I love them so much I snack on them the way people snack on an apple. I usually just eat them with salt and pepper or will mix them with olive oil and onions for a tomato salad. As much as I enjoy them fresh, there’s something that happens to the flavor and aroma of a tomato when it’s fried. Bandoora Maqliya, literally translates to fried tomatoes in Arabic and is a mouthwatering traditional dish that anyone can make.
What you need:
3 large firm tomatoes, sliced
Salt

I like to add my own seasonings like herbs d’provence and oregano for added flavor.
