These elegant stuffed tomatoes can be served as a gourmet entree or as a side dish to lamb, chicken or fish.
- Cut a thin slice from the top of each tomato. Using a teaspoon, remove the flesh and juice. Discard the flesh. Place the juice and seeds in a measuring jug. Place tomato shells in a baking dish.
- Add lemon juice to the tomato juice. Add enough water to make up 1 cup (250ml) of tomato liquid. Place the couscous in a bowl. Add the tomato mixture and combine. Set aside for 10 minutes. Fluff the couscous with a fork. Stir in the figs, almonds and cinnamon.
- Preheat oven to 200°C. Fill shells with couscous. Replace tops on each tomato. Spray with oil. Bake for 15 minutes.
- Mix the yoghurt, lemon juice, garlic and mint. Serve tomatoes with the natural yoghurt.
