Ingredients
  

  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 3 tbsp olive oil, plus extra for the skillet
  • 4 tbsp tahini
  • Splash of lemon juice
  • 4 slices crusty sourdough bread
  • Salt and black pepper
  • Fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Place the cherry tomatoes, balsamic vinegar, 3 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper into an ovenproof dish. Toss to combine. Roast for about 20 minutes, or until blistering, soft, and jammy.
  • Meanwhile, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add a generous glug of olive oil, place the sourdough slices in the skillet, and fry until deeply golden and crispy, about 3 minutes per side.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the tahini with 1–2 tablespoons of water and a splash of lemon juice until smooth and pourable.
  • Top the fried toasts with the warm roasted tomatoes, getting some of the balsamic-tomato mixture left at the bottom of your baking dish.
  • Drizzle generously with your thinned tahini and scatter the fresh parsley and extra cracked black pepper over the top. Serve.
