Ingredients

  • 4 medium Fresh tomatoes
  • 2 teaspoons Cumin seeds
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 2 cloves Garlic
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Wash and dice the tomatoes into bite-sized pieces. Set them aside.

Step 2

Finely mince the garlic cloves.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat for about 30 seconds.

Step 4

Add the cumin seeds to the hot oil and let them sizzle for 15-20 seconds, stirring to avoid burning. You'll know they're ready when they release a fragrant aroma.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds until softened and lightly golden.

Step 6

Toss in the diced tomatoes. Stir well to coat the tomatoes in the cumin and garlic-infused oil.

Step 7

Sprinkle with salt and black pepper, stirring to combine. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes soften and release their juices but still hold their shape.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

Step 9

Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the cumin-rich tomatoes to a serving dish.

Step 10

Optional: Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro for a pop of color and a hint of freshness.

Step 11

Serve warm as a side dish, or pair with crusty bread for a quick and satisfying snack.
