Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 220°C/425ºF. Divide the tomatoes into 4 portions of roughly the same size, each still attached to part of the vine. Carefully place in a roasting pan, drizzle with the oil and scatter with the garlic and thyme sprigs. Roast the tomatoes for 10 minutes or until they are tender.
