Roasting wild tomatoes deepens their natural sweetness and develops rich, caramelised flavour that’s perfect as a side, topping or ingredient in pastas, salads and bruschetta.

Ingredients

  • 500–600 g wild tomatoes (e.g., cherry or grape tomatoes)

  • 2–3 tbsp olive oil

  • 3–4 garlic cloves, minced

  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

  • 1–2 tsp balsamic vinegar or lemon juice (optional)

  • Fresh herbs (basil, thyme or oregano), for garnish

  • Optional: pinch of sugar

Method

  1. Preheat: Heat oven to 200°C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Prep tomatoes: Place wild tomatoes in a large bowl.

  3. Season: Drizzle with olive oil and add minced garlic, salt and pepper (and a pinch of sugar if using). Toss to coat evenly.

  4. Roast: Spread tomatoes in a single layer and roast 30–35 minutes until softened and caramelised, stirring once halfway.

Tomato Jam

Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 60–70 minutes
Total time: ~1 hour 20 minutes
Makes: ~3–4 jars

Tomato jam transforms wild tomatoes into a sweet-tangy condiment that’s delicious with cheese boards, sandwiches, grilled meats and brunch favourites.

Ingredients

  • 1.2–1.5 kg wild tomatoes, roughly chopped

  • 300–350 g sugar (adjust to taste)

  • 120 ml apple cider vinegar

  • 1 small red onion, finely chopped

  • 2–3 garlic cloves, minced

  • 1–2 tsp freshly grated ginger (optional)

  • 1–2 tsp chilli flakes or chopped fresh chilli (optional heat)

  • Pinch of salt

Method

  1. Prep fruit & aromatics: Place chopped tomatoes, red onion, garlic (and ginger if using) in a large heavy-bottomed pot.

  2. Add sugar & vinegar: Stir in sugar, apple cider vinegar and a pinch of salt until evenly mixed.

  3. Cook: Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer 60–70 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thick and jam-like.

  4. Check consistency: To test, place a spoonful on a chilled plate — if it gels and doesn’t run, it’s ready.

  5. Jar & cool: Spoon the hot tomato jam into sterilised jars, seal and let cool completely.

  6. Serve: Keep in the fridge and enjoy with cheese, toast or grilled foods.
