Stuffed Tomatoes with Pork Recipe

This is a homemade favorite in Cambodia, where pre-stuffed tomatoes (and bitter gourd) are sold in the ready-meals section of supermarkets, alongside stir-fries and sour soups. Some families like to serve these up in a clear broth, where the tomatoes come undone and the meatballs float on their own. It’s always served with rice.

Recipe Notes: 

When choosing tomatoes, large round cooking tomatoes are best. Beefeater is a bad choice because it’s not a cooking tomato and will just turn to a tasteless pulp. Better Boy tomatoes work great as well as firm tomatoes on the vine.
