The humble tomato often gets forgotten as a side dish, but you can guarantee we leave no veg (or fruit for that matter!) behind. Roast tomatoes are a perfect accompaniment to just about anything you can think of and are quick and easy to boot!
Any breadcrumb is welcome (the Zeally Bay Sourdough ends make perfect crispy morsels) but panko is your friend if you want that extra layer of crunch.
Mix up your herb topping – almost any will work – according to what you have on hand. Basil for Italian-style toms, Oregano for a Greek flair… it’s up to you. But whatever you do, don’t skimp on those crumbs!
