How to make stuffed tomatoes that look like tulips?
Ingredients:
- small tomatoes
- fresh chives

- Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste, then transfer it into a pastry bag.
- Next, prepare the tomatoes. Cut each one from top to bottom in a crisscross pattern, allowing them to open beautifully, just like the petals of a real tulip.

- Finally, stuff each tomato with the previously prepared mixture and serve on a long plate.
