hanger steak with burnt tomato and chimichurri

Introduction

Tomatoes are a staple across many cultures with numerous varieties from beefsteak & Roma plum, cocktail, green and heirloom to name but a few that are suitable for different dishes around the world. The tomato plant is actually a fruit though we commonly treat it as a vegetable to make many dishes from the base of a fresh raw Spanish Gazpacho, as a base for the world famous Margherita pizza & of course tomato ketchup. I like to eat fresh tomatoes in season simply dressed with a little lemon juice, the best olive oil, sea salt & freshly torn basil leaves. They are very simple yet beautiful.
