Tomato Garlic Confit with Marinated Feta
Loaded with tangy flavors and super creamy at the same time- this tomato garlic confit with marinated feta is a total winner!
Ingredients
- 1 lbs cherry tomatoes
- ½ cup olive oil
- 1 pc lemon (cut into wedges)
- 6-8 large cloves of garlic (peeled)
- 100 gms feta cheese (cubed)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh herbs of your choice (rosemary, thyme, basil)
- 1 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a baking dish or an oven-safe glass container, add the cherry tomatoes with all the other ingredients except the feta cheese.
- Pop the dish in the oven and bake for 20 minutes or until the tomatoes are tender and the garlic has browned up nicely. Roast until the tomatoes are tender and the garlic is soft enough to mash. Begin checking after 20 minutes, but allow longer as needed; whole garlic may take substantially longer at 200°F.
- Take this out of the oven, allow it to cool down completely.Remove from the oven and let the mixture cool briefly.
- Now transfer the contents into a clean glass jar, add the feta cheese and cover everything with the remaining olive oil. Add the feta and transfer to a clean shallow container for prompt refrigeration.
- Refrigerate for up to a week and enjoy on your morning toast. Refrigerate promptly at 40°F (4°C) or below and use within 4 days, or freeze for longer storage. Do not store at room temperature.
