Slow roasted tomatoes

These are easy....especially if you've got a couple of bushes going crazy in the garden


I picked these when I got home from the beach...and I didn't want to just throw them in a salad or a spaghetti sauce....even though both are very nice ways to use them

So I decided to slow roast them

Preheat the oven to about 100 degrees

Cut the tomatoes in half and place them on a lined baking tray.


Season with freshly ground salt and pepper, then drizzle some olive oil over them


Put them in the oven and let them roast for about 2 and a half hours


That's it

They go from this.....


To this...


EAT

You can speed up the process a little...preheat oven to 150 and check on them after an hour...it really all depends on you and how juicy you like your roasted tomatoes.

It's a great way to use up all those tomatoes that spring up in the garden

    1. They're as easy as anything Melissah. Just shove them in the oven. Job done

  2. Just pulling out some withered vines now with bright red globules on them! This is the perfect solution.

    1. I've got to get stuck into the garden this week and remove the dried up tomato bushes KH. They're looking a bit worse for wear at the moment
