We've so many tomatoes at the moment it's tricky to know what to do with them all.
One of our favourite meals with them is this tarte tatin.
Simply fill a roasting dish with cherry tomatoes, a good glug of balsamic vinegar and olive oil, some chopped up rosemary and thyme. Then roll out the puff pastry to fit the dish then spread pesto over it and place it face down on the dish. Tuck in the edges and roast for about 30 minutes until the pastry is cooked and golden.
This is a lovely easy dish served with some other summer veg and new potatoes.
Also if it's all home grown it works out to be very cheap as well!
That looks wonderful, cheap, nutritious and healthy and I bet it is delicious .... it ticks all the boxes :-)
ReplyDeleteWe love it. A proper summer staple!
DeleteNever heard of tarte tatin, Kev. It looks good. We often make our own pizza and base with tomatoes. I add curry paste to the topping to make my own Indian/Italian pizza. You can't beat home grown can you?
ReplyDeleteWe do a beetroot one as well which is great. We've never had an apple one which is where it originates from! Must try one this autumn!
DeleteYum, looks fabulous, could you post me a bit? lol
ReplyDeleteI'll wrap some up for you!
DeleteWe tried the courgette salad the other day.Obviously I used homemade faux feta,instead of milk feta,but HOLY MOLY...that was delish! Thanks...it will be a firm favourite.

We love that salad - how do you make faux feta? Sounds interesting!
DeleteMarinate tofu in red wine vinegar,herbs and olive oil.It doesn't have the sour bite of real feta...but we like it.

My wife has asked me to ask you how long you marinade it for. I think we'll have to give it a try! Sorry for more questions!
DeleteThat looks amazing Kev. We too have lots of tomatoes and I needed another recipe. THANKS
ReplyDeleteI'm sure your'll love it. A good cheap tea.
DeleteSounds delicious, will have to try it as my tomatoes start ripening.
ReplyDeleteIt's a great way to use them up
DeleteI'll have a go at this Kev. we have plenty of tomatoes too, but I am processing quite a few into paste and passata for the freezer as well as eating them at nearly every meal and selling a few from the door. You can't have too many tomatoes!
ReplyDeleteGill
My wife made passata last night, great for bigger tomatoes. How do you make your paste?
DeleteHmmmm... looks so yummy!
ReplyDeleteLooks delicious. When I lived in Italy I practically subsisted on tomatoes, fresh bread, and "buffalo" cheese. I love any tomato dish.
ReplyDeleteWe love anything with tomatoes in. Italian food is amazing.
DeleteLooks rustic and delicious! Our toms slowly ripening so will get into this soon. Cheers.
ReplyDeleteGive it a go Oliver and let me know what you think.
