Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray 4 shallow ovenproof dishes, each about 5 to 6 in. (12 to 15 cm) in diameter. Divide the cherry tomatoes among the dishes, spreading them out, and sprinkle over top the chives and 4 tbsp (60 ml) of the cheese.
  2. Break the eggs into a bowl and whisk them together with the egg whites, then gradually whisk in the flour until smooth. Add the sour cream, then gradually whisk in the milk to make a thin, smooth batter. Season lightly with pepper.
  3. Pour the batter over the tomatoes, dividing it evenly among the dishes. Sprinkle over the remaining cheese and an extra grinding of pepper. Bake until set, puffed, and lightly golden, about 30 to 35 minutes.
  4. Remove the puddings from the oven and leave to cool for a few minutes before serving, as the tomatoes are very hot inside.
