Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Cherry or grape tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Wash and dry the cherry or grape tomatoes, then slice them in half and place them in a large mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, minced garlic, thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper.
Pour the balsamic mixture over the tomatoes and toss gently to ensure they are evenly coated.
Spread the tomatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking tray, cut side up for maximum caramelization.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the tomatoes are softened and slightly caramelized at the edges.
Remove the tray from the oven and let the tomatoes cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm or at room temperature as a side dish, or use as a topping for pasta, salads, or crusty bread.
