Blasted Cherry Tomatoes
From notyourmomma 16 years ago
- 10 minutes to make
- Serves 4
These are called "blasted" at home because they are done when they start to "pop". We like them as an easy side and it works with a grilled meat and a baked onion ala Edith Bristow.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoons of butter shopping list
- 2 whole shallots, chopped shopping list
- 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley shopping list
- 1/2 teaspoon of sugar shopping list
- 3 tablespoons of vermouth shopping list
- 1 pint of cherry or grape tomatoes shopping list
- 2 small cloves of garlic minced shopping list
- pinch of salt shopping list
- grind of pepper shopping list
- splash of heavy cream *sometimes we use cream, sometimes we don't* shopping list
How to make it
- Melt butter over medium heat. (I use olive oil most times)
- Saute shallot til soft over high heat.
- Add parsley, sugar, vermouth and tomatoes with the garlic.
- Cook over high heat til the tomatoes start to pop.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- If desired, add a splash of cream and heat to bubbling and it melds with the tomato juices.
- Alternately, I have roasted the tomatoes til they pop in a hot 400 degree oven with the shallots and seasonings tossed over them. About 10 minutes. No cream added in the oven prep.
