Jammy confit tomatoes
I found this recipe from Emily C and love the simplicity of it.
If you love gooey, sweet tomatoes, then this is a fantastic little idea.

Jammy confit tomatoes with chickpeas recipe
Ingredients
500g tomatoes, roughly 1-2cm slices
1 x 700g jar of large chickpeas (or 2 x 400g tins), drained
2-3 anchovies, chopped roughly (optional if you don’t like anchovies)
1 tsp chilli flakes
3 garlic cloves, peeled
3 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper for seasoning (careful on the salt if you’re using anchovies)
Directions
Set the oven to 130 C / 75 F.
Layer the tomatoes and drained chickpeas in a baking dish, pop in the garlic cloves and cover them in olive oil, chilli flakes, anchovies and a little salt and pepper.
Roast the mixture in the oven for about 1.5-2 hours or until the tomatoes have softened and are going gooey.
Serve over pasta or on a nice piece of crusty toasted sourdough.
