Slowly cooking tomatoes with salt slightly dehydrates them and concentrates their flavour. So if you start with good-quality, great-tasting plum tomatoes and cook them overnight in the slow cooker with salt, they’ll taste even better. They are lovely served on toast or as an accompaniment to a full cooked breakfast.

8 plum tomatoes

A large pinch of sea salt

1 tsp caster sugar

1 tbsp balsamic vinegar

Using a sharp knife, cut the tomatoes in half and place them cut side down in a single layer in the slow cooker dish.

Sprinkle over the salt, sugar and vinegar. Cover with the lid and cook on low overnight or for up to 9 hours.

Using a spatula, remove the tomatoes from the slow cooker dish and serve on hot buttered toast.

WHAT ABOUT…

if you want to use the oven? Place the ingredients in a roasting tin and cook in an oven preheated to 110°C (225°F), Gas mark ¹/₄ overnight or for up to 9 hours until the tomatoes are softened and starting to dry out slightly.
