Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups cherry tomatoes
  • 1 Camembert-style cheese from Violife
  • 1 head garlic
  • 1/4 tsp salt or to taste
  • 1/4 tsp pepper or to taste
  • 1/4 tsp chili flakes or to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  • To prepare roasted cherry tomatoes and garlic, start by cutting a small portion off the top of a garlic head. Place it upside-down with the cherry tomatoes in an oven-proof dish.
  • Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Roast in the oven at a lower temperature at 320°F / 160°C for about 45 minutes until the tomatoes are blistered and the garlic is soft and caramelized.
  • After removing the dish from the oven, take out the garlic and allow it to cool for a few minutes until it's cool enough to handle.
  • Proceed by scoring the cheese in a crosshatch pattern and placing it in the middle of the pan.
  • Squeeze out the garlic from its skin and spread it on top of the cheese. Add pepper and chili flakes if you want a little kick, then drizzle with olive oil.
  • Bake for 5 to 10 minutes until the cheese is soft.
  • Grab some crackers and enjoy!
