Roast whole tomatoes and quartered pepper on a baking sheet at 350º for 1-2 hours. Brush produce with garlic and olive oil before cooking.

Cool, then puree with a little of the oil from the roasting pan.

Skin and dice salmon. Add and mix salt, pepper, beaten egg, 1 chopped red onion, roasted garlic clove, 1/2 cup parmesan, and parsley. Mix together, then add panko until mixture becomes sticky enough to form meatballs.
