Ingredients:

6 tomatoes
780g
1 tbsp fresh thyme
16g
1 tsp dried oregano
5g
2 tbsp olive oil
27g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Tomatoes:
- Wash the tomatoes thoroughly under running water.

3. Season the Tomatoes:
- Place the tomato halves cut side up on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a lightly greased baking tray.
- Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the tomato halves.
- Sprinkle the fresh thyme and dried oregano over the tomatoes. Ensure each piece is well-seasoned.
- Optionally, you can add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
4. Roast the Tomatoes:
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven.
- Roast for about 25-30 minutes, or until the tomatoes are softened and slightly caramelized around the edges. The exact time may vary based on your oven and the size of the tomato halves.
5. Serve:
- Remove the tomatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
- These semi-roasted tomatoes can be served warm or at room temperature.
- Use them as a side dish, in salads, as a topping for bruschetta, or mixed into pasta dishes.

Tips:

- Choose ripe, yet firm tomatoes for the best texture and flavor.

- Feel free to experiment with other herbs such as basil or rosemary for different flavor profiles.

- If you prefer a more intense roasted flavor, leave the tomatoes in the oven a bit longer, but keep an eye on them to prevent burning.

- Using a high-quality olive oil can make a significant difference in the final taste of the dish.

- These semi-roasted tomatoes can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.

- Serve these tomatoes as a topping for salads, pastas, or bruschetta, or enjoy them on their own as a flavorful side dish.
