9. 9

   NOTES : I prefer to use plum tomatoes for grilled slices as they hold their shape best but you can use regular beefsteak type tomatoes.

    The trick is to grill the tomatoes till pretty much done on the first side, then flip and grill very briefly on the second side.

11. 11

    Do not overcook or possibly the tomato will fall apart.

    A vegetable grill rack, that isn't 100 per cent necessary enables you to slip the spatula under the tomatoes without damaging the soft flesh.
