Grilled beef tomatoes with chilli, garlic and ginger

These are delicious as they are, eaten with some bread alongside to mop up the oil. They can also be bulked into a punchy starter, with some burrata or mozzarella, or served for brunch with scrambled eggs. If your tomatoes are not perfectly ripe, just sprinkle them with a tiny pinch of sugar before grilling. These can be made up to 6 hours in advance and served at room temperature.
