You’re absolutely right! Confit cherry tomatoes are a fantastic, versatile side dish. The slow cooking process intensifies their sweetness and creates a melt-in-your-mouth texture. Here’s how to make them, along with some tips:
Ingredients:
500g cherry tomatoes
1-2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
Fresh herbs (thyme, rosemary, oregano), optional
Olive oil (enough to cover the tomatoes)
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: a pinch of sugar
Instructions:
Prepare the Tomatoes:
Wash and dry the cherry tomatoes.
You can leave them whole or make a small X-shaped cut on the bottom of each tomato to help them release their juices.

Thinly slice the garlic cloves.
If using fresh herbs, wash and gently pat them dry.
