2 x 250g packs No.1 Dulce Deliciosa Tomatoes
4 clove/s garlic, finely sliced
6 sprig/s oregano
2 tbsp nonpareille capers, drained
5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
4 slice/s sourdough

For the whipped feta

200g pack feta
100g natural strained Greek yogurt
½ unwaxed lemon, zest

Preheat the oven to 170ºC, gas mark 3. Halve the tomatoes and arrange, cut-side up, in a large baking dish. Nestle in the tomato vines (they add flavour), garlic, oregano sprigs and capers. Drizzle over the oil, then season and roast for 1 hour, basting the tomatoes with the juices halfway through. Set aside to cool – they’re best served warm or at room temperature.
For the whipped feta, pat the feta dry thoroughly on kitchen paper. Put the whole block in a food processor with the yogurt, lemon zest and some freshly ground black pepper. Pulse until you have a thick, smooth spread.
Toast or griddle the sourdough, then spoon over a little of the oily juices from the tomatoes. Spread with the whipped feta, then spoon on the tomatoes (discarding the vines and any thick oregano sprigs).

Cook’s tip

Ahead of the game
Roast the tomatoes up to 12 hours in advance and leave them covered, at room temperature, until ready to serve. The whipped feta can also be made in advance and chilled until needed.
