2.2 lb (1 kg) cherry tomatoes


5 sprigs thyme


3 cloves garlic


6 leaves sweet basil


Extra virgin olive oil


Fleur de sel and pepper





Stem and chop finely sweet basil


Peel garlic


Crush cloves and chop very coarsely into large pieces


Wash tomatoes and cut in quarters


Seed tomatoes


Place tomatoes on oven shelf after covering with parchment paper. Space tomatoes far enough apart to prevent their touching


Sprinkle tomato quarters with pieces of garlic, thyme and chopped sweet basil.


Dribble olive oil on all tomatoes


Sprinkle with coarse salt and pepper


Cook 4 hours in oven pre-heated to 200 潞F (90 掳C). Tomatoes are ready as soon as thoroughly dry. Turn tomatoes at end of cooking if you notice skin side is still too moist.


Cool; they can be stored in refrigerator and perhaps covered again with a bit of olive oil
Mix together a little olive oil, salt, pepper, basil (fresh is best but dried is OK) and grated onion. If you like lemon or lime with tomatoes, add some juice.





Slice or chop your tomatoes and toss with what you just mixed up. Bake until they're as tender as you want them.





Fresh tomatoes are SOOO versatile. You could add some breadcrumbs and fresh-grated parmesan to the above, and broil it for a minute ... or get some Buffala (fresh) mozzarella and melt that over it ....





Balsamic vinegar (really ANY vinegar) or Italian dressing would work, too.
1 pound of tomatoes





陆 hot pepper (or more ) I use a whole one but I like the hot. If you do not like the pepper hot at all you could use bell pepper or devien and deseed a pepper to it wouldnt be so hot.





1 meduim onion, finely chopped


3 cloves garlic, chopped


about 25 cumin seeds


2 tbls oil


salt to taste





Method:








Roast tomatoes for about 10 mins. or until skins are easily peeled. Peel them and mash them into bite size pieces into a bowl.


Add onion and pepper and mix well


Heat oil in frying pan, add garlic until light brown, taking care not to burn it, a few moments later, after garlic has started to brown but not yet brown, add the cumin seed.


Take off the fire and mix well with the tomatoes.
