Ingredients:

16g
1 tsp dried oregano
5g

Instructions:

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

- Optionally, you can add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
4. Roast the Tomatoes:

5. Serve:

Tips:

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

- 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.
