Slow-Roasted Tomatoes

These slow-roasted tomatoes are a wonderful way to intensify the natural sweetness of plum tomatoes, transforming them into succulent gems of concentrated flavour. By cooking them at a very low temperature for several hours, the moisture evaporates slowly, leaving behind a rich, savoury taste that is far superior to shop-bought sun-dried alternatives. The addition of fresh garlic and extra-virgin olive oil ensures every bite is infused with Mediterranean aromatics.

As a diabetes-friendly option, this recipe is naturally low in sugar and packed with heart-healthy fats and antioxidants. They make a versatile addition to your weekly meal prep; try tossing them through a fresh rocket salad, stirring them into wholemeal pasta, or simply serving them alongside grilled fish. They keep beautifully in the fridge, allowing you to add a burst of summer sunshine to any meal.
