I may be an old sack, but every now and then it still flashes between my synapses. There was something with falafel, tahini, hummus and everything was stuck in the back of my mind like an unwashed toilet. An Arabic wrap that combines everything was the brilliant idea.

As far as I know, tomatoes are the first stuffed vegetables to appear in Germany. Tomatoes were grown both commercially and in the home garden. If you were lucky, there were also particularly large specimens like the beef tomato, which are good for stuffing. As with the stuffed peppers, you can mix a normal meatball mixture with soaked rolls or, instead of rolls, pre-cooked rice with the minced meat.
Cooking is a bit difficult, as...
