Take your tom's out of the fridge they don't need to be in there and they taste a lot better at room temp (in my humble).

Many, many years ago (ie when I was about 13) my friend's mum ran a Weight Watchers group and they had a recipe for marrow and tomatoes which was YUM. Our version was probably not as weight watchy as it should have been - after all, I was 13 - 5'6" and weighed 8 and a half stone. Ah, I remember the days, sigh!!! Still 5'6" but sadly no longer anything like as sylph-like...
Ahem! I digress. This is what you do:
Peel and deseed your marrow. Cut into rings or half rings or quarters, depending how big it is. Slice your tomatoes. Finely slice a large onion or two. Get a couple of oxo cubes out of the cupboard.
In a casserole start layering: onion, marrow, tomato, sprinkling of oxo cube; repeat. Pour over a little water (it really doesn't need much) and put the lid on. Bung in a medium oven until it starts to smell nice. Take it out and test to see if the marrow is cooked. You may have to discard some liquid if it has produced a lot, or you may have to baste slightly to mix it all in.
Now smother in grated cheese and return to the oven until it's all melted and gooey and lovely (this is the non-weight-watchy bit). I am now 47 and can still remember as I type this how good this tasted - and dead simple. A Proustian moment - I might actually have to go and make it now!0 -
