Preparing the snack

The eggs for the dish should be hard-boiled. Peel them. Cut the eggs into slices. Take a few medium-sized tomatoes. It is better that they are not completely ripe. Remove the middle from them and cut them into slices as well. Lightly salt the tomatoes.

Next, you will need a fireproof or ceramic dish. Put one layer of tomatoes in it. Lightly salt them. Then a layer of eggs and another layer of tomatoes on top. Lightly salt the top again.

In a separate container, melt the butter. Pour it over the tomatoes and sprinkle with cheese. The recipe suggests 1-2 tablespoons of cheese, but there is never a lot of it. You can put more. Put the workpiece in the oven for 5-10 minutes over medium heat so that the cheese melts and a crust forms.
