Ingredients
  • 500 g Cherry tomatoes
  • 3 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 2 cloves, minced Garlic
  • 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh thyme
  • 1 tablespoon, chopped Fresh rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black pepper

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Wash and dry the cherry tomatoes thoroughly. Mince the garlic and chop the fresh thyme and rosemary.

Mixing

In a large bowl, combine the cherry tomatoes, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped thyme, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Toss gently to ensure the tomatoes are evenly coated.

Roasting

Spread the seasoned cherry tomatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the tomatoes are softened and slightly burst. The skins should be wrinkled and the juices slightly caramelized.

Serving

Remove the roasted cherry tomatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Garnish with extra fresh herbs, if desired. These are delicious served warm or at room temperature.
