Gratinéed Celery with Tomato & Parmesan

This is aunt Julietta’s recipe. I love having these types of things at her home — she always serves them alongside a beautiful roast. This also works very well with cauliflower broken up into smaller bits, zucchini (courgettes), cardoons or the thicker stems of silverbeet, and is especially good with pumpkin slices. It is very good fried first and then arranged on the tomato, but that’s a bit more of a job.
