Confit Tomato + Garlic
Lazy girl confit on burrata toast! 🍅☁️ Make this an hour before friends come over and they will bow down to your greatness. See how it’s made here.
Ingredients
For the confit:
1 pint of cherry tomatoes
1 head of garlic, peeled
Salt + pepper
Sprigs of thyme, rosemary or oregano
1-2 cups olive oil, enough to fully submerge your tomatoes and garlic
*Optional: red wine vinegar (to finish the dish)
For the toast:
Toasted fresh bread (sourdough, if you got it)
1 burrata sphere
Honey, for drizzling
Red pepper flakes
Make it!
Pre-heat oven to 325°F. In a ceramic or glass oven dish, add tomatoes, garlic, salt, pepper, herbs, and enough olive oil to fully submerge ingredients. Cover with aluminum foil (so that the tomatoes don’t get any char on the skins) and bake for one hour. Remove from oven and allow to cool for a few minutes. Splash some red wine on the tomatoes.
Make your toast! Fish out a few confit garlic cloves and smear them on the toasted bread. They should spread like BUTTER. Add your burrata sphere and break it open, spreading across the toast. Spoon the confit tomatoes on top and drizzle with the warm oil, honey, red pepper flakes and crunchy salt.
Store the confit and the oil in an airtight container in your fridge. It will continue to infuse as it sits. Use this delicious oil for cooking or finishes. Cheers!
