Instructions
- Arrange the cherry tomatoes and grated garlic on a baking dish and tuck thyme sprigs around. Drizzle generously with olive oil, sprinkle with sugar and season with salt & pepper to taste. Add the balsamic vinegar and toss gently to coat.
- Bake at 130C/260F until tomatoes are wrinkly but not all have burst, abut 1-½ to 2 hours.
- Once ready, remove the tomatoes from the oven and cool at room temperature.
- In the meantime, grill the sliced bread until crispy, then spoon over a little ricotta cheese on each slice, top with cherry tomato confit, drizzle a bit of basil pesto on top and serve.
Notes
- Store remaining cherry tomato confit with their cooking oil and pan juices in an airtight container in the fridge up to 2 weeks, or freeze up to 2 months.
