"This is from the Amore Italian Tomato Paste package. I haven't tried it yet, but thought it sounded good. Prep time is a guess on my part."

ingredients

1 ¹⁄₂ cups milk
5 eggs
1 pinch cayenne pepper
¹⁄₄ teaspoon salt
black pepper, freshly ground
¹⁄₂ cup gruyere cheese, grated
¹⁄₄ cup ricotta cheese
¹⁄₄ cup parmesan cheese, grated
For the Tomato Coulis
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons olive oil
¹⁄₄ cup onion, minced
1 garlic clove, minced
3 tablespoons tomato paste
³⁄₄ cup water
¹⁄₄ teaspoon thyme
¹⁄₄ teaspoon salt

directions

Whisk together the milk, eggs, cayenne, salt and pepper. Stir in the cheeses. Spoon mixture into 6 six-ounce ramekins. Place ramekins in a shallow pan and pour hot water around them to a depth of 1 inch. Bake in preheated 350 F oven for 45 minutes until lightly browned.
While timbales bake, prepare the tomato coulis. Heat the butter or olive oil in a nonreactive pan and saute the onion and garlic until softened. Add the tomato paste, water, thyme, salt and pepper. Stir to blend all ingredients and simmer 3-4 minutes.
Timbales may be served in the ramekins or turn out onto small plates. Spoon the warm tomato coulis over or around the timbales.
Serves 6.
Note: Tomato coulis is delicious on poached chicken or fish.
