Tomatoes Stuffed with Spinach

Decapitate the tomatoes and carefully scoop out the insides with a teaspoon.

Preheat the oven to 200°C, gas mark 6, 400°F.

Remove the stalks from the spinach and wash. Cook it very gently until it is soft in a large saucepan, without adding water. Chop the spinach very finely or purée in a liquidiser or food processor. Squeeze with a saucer to remove excess liquid.

Meanwhile, cook the pasta in boiling water for 5 minutes, or until al dente. Rinse and drain well, then mix with the spinach. Add the butter, cream, nutmeg and garlic, and season well.

Fill each tomato and top with the cheese and anchovies. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes and serve piping hot.
