Oven-Roasted Leeks and Cherry Tomatoes – Vegan version
Leeks and cherry tomatoes caramelized in the oven with balsamic and date syrup. A simple vegetable that turns into a sweet-tangy side. Vegan version: Date syrup (silan).
💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
