Barbecue stuffed tomatoes recipe on James Martin Food Map of Britain with tomatoes from the Isle of White

James Martin visits the Isle of White to discover why tomatoes grown on the sunny island are giving those from Italy a run for their money. He then serves up a barbeque stuffed tomato dish that looks a treat for any dinner party.

James says: “Beef tomatoes stuffed with mince and served with a rich tomato sauce is a great way to use up a glut of tomatoes.”
