TINY Santorini tomatoes, ripened under the blazing island sun, with little rain and almost no irrigation, are intensely flavorful, with hardly any juice. When making this simple meze with Santorini tomatoes, one doesn’t need to drain them or to add much else.

Trying to duplicate the taste with ordinary tomatoes, I came up with this recipe. Following the same principle, you can make other patties using seasonal vegetables.
