Prep Time 10 minutes

Cooking Time 20 minutes

Ingredients

800 g heirloom or ripe tomatoes
5 T olive oil
6 cloves garlic
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 T caster sugar
190 g orzo
4–6 sundried tomatoes, chopped

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Cut up the tomatoes and arrange on a baking tray. Drizzle with 2 T olive oil, add 4 cloves garlic, season and sprinkle a pinch of caster sugar over the surface of each tomato. Roast for 20 minutes.

2. Cook the orzo according to package instructions, drain and set aside.
