2. Chop up scallions and mix with ground pork.

3. Roll pork mixture into ball and put into gutted tomatoes. (refer to picture)

4. Put oil in pan and fry the stuffed tomatoes on both sides until meat is cooked and tomatoes have that semi-soft wrinkly texture.

this is a bit of waiting game.

MEANWHILE...

onto the SAUCE!

5. Mix tomato innards with ketchup until its a thicker but still runny consistency

6. When stuffed tomatoes are done cooking. Remove from heat. Pour the sauce all over.

This kind of reminds me of grilled tomatoes in Middle Eastern food. Squishy tomatoes are good with rice. Especially fried rice. I like to break up the stuffed tomatoes and mix it with the rice so it's a giant blob. A delicious blob.
