Cut a portion off the top of the tomatoes. Carefully scoop out the juice and seeds from inside. Retain this to fill the vegetables later.
Prick the potatoes with a fork at few points, peel a small area and adding some water, cook on micro power high for 4 minutes. Allow to stand for a further minute.
Remove the peel. Cut into two. Using a very sharp knife make a hollow in the middle of the four pieces.
(Alternatively you may boil the potatoes on stove top until you are able to remove the peel. Take care not to over cook them.)
Mix the ingredients for the filling with the potato pieces sliced off the centres and the removed tops of the tomatoes.
Fill this mixed filling into the created hollows. Place these prepared toamtoes and potatoes on a flat microwave safe dish, brush some olive oil over the surface, cover with cling film and microwave on high power for 1 minute.
Garnish with chopped fresh coriander. Serve with onion rings or a yoghurt dip.
