## Notes

* firstly, make sure to use slightly firm tomato, else while scooping out seeds the tomato will turn mushy.

* also, stuff generous amount of aloo mixture into the tomato. else tomato will collapse while frying.

* additionally, prepare a spicy stuffing, as the juice of tangy tomato will balance the flavour.

* finally, **tomato bajji recipe** tastes great when served hot.
