Slow-cooked tomatoes with basil
This Italian dish transforms small tomatoes into a flavourful preserve. Halved tomatoes are seasoned and slow-roasted for several hours until semi-dried and chewy, with basil added towards the end. They are then packed into jars and covered with warm, peppercorn-infused olive oil. The result is an intensely flavoured, versatile item suitable for a buffet, side dish, or snack, and it keeps in the fridge for up to a week.
