Ingredients:

Serving

8 large firm tomatoes ( each 3 to 3 1/2 inches in diameter)
2 tbsp (1/4 stick) butter
1 large onion, chopped
1 lb ground lamb
1/2 cup dry red wine
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
4 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
3/4 cup cooked long-grain white rice (about 1/4 cup uncooked )
1/4 cup plain dry breadcrumbs
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°F. Cut off top third of tomatoes; chop tops and reserve. Scoop out seeds, juice, and pulp from tomatoes and discard.
Melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and sauté until tender and golden, about 8 minutes. Add lamb and sauté until browned, about 7 minutes. Add chopped tomato tops, wine, mint, 2 tablespoons parsley, and cinnamon. Bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer until mixture thickens, stirring frequently, about 12 minutes. Stir in cooked rice.
Place tomatoes in 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish. Spoon lamb mixture into tomatoes. Sprinkle each tomato with 1/2 tablespoon breadcrumbs, then 1 tablespoon cheese. Bake until heated through and cheese begins to turn golden, about 25 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons parsley.
