Roasted tomatoes

Side Serves 1 50 min

A super-versatile way with cherry tomatoes. Eat as a side to grilled chicken or halloumi and asparagus. Stir into spelt or pearl barley with other roasted Mediterranean veg and a spoonful of pesto. Combine with white beans, slow-cooked onions and torn basil. Pep up your pasta with them and a generous grating of Parmesan... Before roasting you could trickle over a little balsamic vinegar for a more sweet-sour finish.

  • 3-4 cherry tomatoes per person
  • herbs eg. marjoram, oregano or thyme (optional)
  • olive oil
