An easy recipe that my family loves. In a large microwave bowl place 500g tomatoes, pour over boiling water and stand a few minutes. Pour into sink. Remove skin and roughly chop tomatoes placing back into bowl. Add 1 Tablespoon each of cornflour, sugar & butter. Add salt and pepper to taste. Stir and microwave on High for a minute or two. Stir and serve on buttered toast. Can be mashed with potato masher for a finer mix. if desired.

I seem to remember (from reading David Lange's memoirs) that his favourite meal was tomatoes on toast.

I love tomatoes on toast, but I just like them fresh, sliced, on hot buttered toast with salt and pepper.I have this for lunch at least two or three times a week when my tomatoes are producing like mad in the summertime - right now! Yum.

I like them fresh too, but I do prefer them cut in half and almost cooked through on my cast iron pan...Mmmm.

As a child I remember my grandfather having the worlds biggest glasshouse and there always being an overflowance of tomatoes, Nana used to bottle them and they were devine. It was such a treat to go to their house for dinner on the weekend as it was usually Nana's bottled tomatoes and pipng hot toast which she used to time the cooking of right down to the buzzer with a wee production line of buttering and cutting so the toast never went soggy. Oh to go back to a time when all I had to worry about was how hot my toast was....
