3 tomatoes (670g)

0.5 onion

Mozzarella cheese, as needed

3 eggs

Salt, to taste

1.5 tbsp mirin (0.5 tbsp per tomato)

A pinch of parsley powder

Recipe

Slice the tops off the 3 tomatoes to make them flat, then use a fruit knife to carefully scrape out the inner pulp to create a bowl shape. Set the scooped-out pulp aside for juice.
Finely mince the 0.5 onion so that the texture can be enjoyed.
Lightly sprinkle a pinch of salt inside the hollowed-out tomatoes to season them.
Divide the minced onion into the hollowed tomatoes, adding 2 spoonfuls to each.
Add 1 spoonful of mozzarella cheese on top of the onions, then carefully crack 1 egg into each tomato.
To remove the fishy smell of the eggs, add 0.5 tbsp of mirin and a half-pinch of salt to the top of each egg.
Finish by piling a generous amount of mozzarella cheese on top without letting it overflow.
Place in an air fryer-safe container and bake at 180 degrees for 15 minutes until the cheese is golden brown, then sprinkle with parsley powder to finish.

Cut the tops off the tomatoes, scoop out the pulp, and lightly season the inside with salt.
Fill the tomato bowls with minced onions, cheese, eggs, mirin, and salt in order.
Top with a generous amount of cheese, bake in an air fryer at 180 degrees for 15 minutes, and garnish with parsley powder.

Cooking tips

Adding half a tablespoon of mirin on top of the egg is essential to cleanly remove the distinct fishy smell of the egg when cooking in an oven or air fryer.
Do not discard the leftover tomato pulp; blend it with 1 cup of water, 1 yogurt, and 1 tbsp of olive oil to make a refreshing and smooth juice.
Since heating power varies by appliance, check after 10 minutes to ensure the cheese does not burn.
