SLOW-ROASTED CHERRY TOMATOES WITH BASIL OIL



Slow-Roasted Cherry Tomatoes With Basil Oil image

When you roast cherry tomatoes, they caramelize and become even sweeter. This dish was inspired by a huge pile of roasted red and yellow cherry tomatoes that a friend served at a dinner party recently; they were drizzled with diluted pesto and placed alongside a luxurious mound of burrata. You can serve these as an appetizer (have napkins close by) or side dish, or tossed with pasta. You can easily multiply this recipe, but you won't have to use much more olive oil to coat the tomatoes. This gorgeous emerald-colored oil is a condiment that you can keep in your refrigerator for up to a week. Keep it in a squeeze bottle, and drizzle it over tomatoes, fish, chicken or other vegetables. It looks beautiful on a white plate, and a little goes a long way.

Time 1h10m

Yield Serves 8 to 10 as an hors d'oeuvre

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 baskets sweet cherry tomatoes (can use a mixture of colors)
Salt to taste
A couple of pinches of sugar
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
About 1 tablespoon basil olive oil (see below)
Salt to taste
2 cups basil
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Place the tomatoes in a baking dish large enough to fit them in a single layer. Add the salt and sugar, and toss together. Add the regular olive oil, and toss again. Place in the oven for 45 minutes until the skins have shriveled and just split; the tomatoes should still be still intact. Remove from the heat, and allow to cool.
  • Bring a pot of water to a boil, and salt generously. Fill a medium bowl with ice water. Place the basil in the boiling water, and blanch for 15 seconds. Remove with a skimmer, and transfer to the ice water. Drain and squeeze out excess water, then place on a clean dish towel and again squeeze out as much water as you can. Place in a blender with the olive oil. Blend one to two minutes until the olive oil is green and tinged with flecks of basil. Transfer to a squeeze bottle, and refrigerate.
  • Arrange the tomatoes on a platter. Drizzle the bright green basil oil decoratively around and over them, and pour on any juices from the pan. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Yield Makes 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

Yogurt sauce:
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/2 cup plain yogurt
3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest
Kosher salt
Salmon:
6 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1/2 bunch dill fronds
1/2 bunch thyme sprigs
1 3-pound piece center-cut skin-on salmon fillet, preferably wild king, pin bones removed
Kosher salt
8 ounces small cherry tomatoes on the vine (optional)
Tomatoes and couscous:
2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons za'atar (optional)
Kosher salt
2 cups Israeli couscous
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Ingredient info: Za'atar, a Middle Eastern spice blend that includes sumac, herbs, and sesame seeds, is available at specialty foods stores, Middle Eastern markets, and igourmet.com.

Steps:

  • For yogurt sauce:
  • Mix first 5 ingredients in a medium bowl until well combined. Season with salt. DO AHEAD: Can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and chill.
  • For salmon:
  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Pour 4 tablespoons oil in a roasting pan just large enough to fit the salmon. Make a bed of herbs in bottom of pan; top with salmon, skin side down. Drizzle salmon with remaining 2 tablespoons oil and season with salt. Top with tomatoes, if using. Bake until salmon is just cooked through in the center (a small knife will slide easily through flesh), 25-30 minutes.
  • For tomatoes and couscous:
  • Toss tomatoes with 3 tablespoons oil, parsley, and za'atar, if using, in a medium bowl. Season to taste with salt. Set aside.
  • Bring a medium pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add couscous and cook until tender, about 7 minutes. Drain couscous; transfer to a large bowl. Stir in butter and remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Season to taste with salt. Gently fold tomatoes into couscous.
  • Use a large spoon or fork to serve salmon, leaving skin in pan. Serve with yogurt sauce and couscous.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe cherry tomatoes for the best flavor. Look for tomatoes that are plump and bright red.
  • Use a variety of colors of cherry tomatoes. This will add visual appeal to your dish.
  • Roast the tomatoes at a low temperature for a longer period of time. This will help to concentrate the flavors and prevent them from burning.
  • Add some herbs or spices to the tomatoes before roasting. This will help to enhance their flavor.
  • Serve the tomatoes as a side dish, appetizer, or even as a pizza topping.

Conclusion:

Slow-roasted cherry tomatoes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is both flavorful and visually appealing.
