Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Split the rolls in half lengthwise, as for sandwiches. Place the anchovy fillets and their oil in a bowl and crush them with a knife into a puree. Stir in the olive oil, then brush this mixture on the cut side of each of the split rolls. Cover with the sliced garlic, and add a layer of sliced onion.
  3. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and arrange about 8 halves on each of the 6 roll halves. Sprinkle each with about 1 ounce of grated cheese, then top with the oregano, pepper and salt.
  4. Arrange on a tray and place in oven about 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the tomatoes are soft. Serve immediately.
