Slow-roasted tomato, fennel and cannellini beans with baked fish | Everyday Food | ABC Australia

A tray of slow-roasted tomatoes is a beautiful thing. Over time, and at a low heat, the tomatoes shrivel as their liquid escapes, leaving you with intensely flavourful bites and spectacularly delicious pan juices.
Feel free to keep this meal vegetarian by skipping the fish and serving the tomatoes, fennel and beans with toasted pinenuts and pan fried haloumi.

***ROASTED GRAPE TOMATOES RECIPE, SERVES TWO***
1/2 lb (227g) pasta (I like orecchiette for this)
1 pint (about 12 oz, 340g) grape or cherry tomatoes
1 shallot
2-3 garlic cloves
1 fresh chili (very optional)
1 stick rosemary (very optional)
fresh basil for garnish
parmesan or pecorino cheese for grating
salt
pepper
olive oil
Get your pasta boiling in salted water and get your broiler (grill) heating to maximum.
Cut all the tomatoes in half and throw them on a sheet pan. Peel and slice the shallot (I like 1/4 circles) and put them on the sheet pan. Peel and coarsely chop the garlic (if it's super fine it's likely to burn), pick and chop the rosemary, seed and slice the chili if you're using it, and put all that on the sheet pan. Drizzle everything with olive oil, season with salt and pepper.
Put the pan right under the broiler for a few minutes, just until the tomatoes start to brown. Drain the pasta. You then have two options...
Option #1 is combine the pasta with the roasted veg in a pot, tear in the basil, drizzle in some fresh olive oil and stir to combine everything. Put it on a plate and grate on cheese.
Option #2 is to put all the roasted veg in a sieve and use a wooden spoon to grind it through until all you have left in the sieve is skins. I do this directly over the drained pasta so the strain sauce falls on top of it. To make it look a little nicer, you could stir back in a few of the chunks from the sieve. Tear in the basil, drizzle in a little fresh oil, put it on a plate, grate on cheese.
***WHITE BEAN AND FENNEL RECIPE, SERVES FOUR***
1/2 lb (227g) pasta (I used casarecce in the video, but penne would work great)
1 bulb fennel
1 head radicchio
1 15.5 oz (439g) can cannellini beans
caraway seeds
chili flakes
parmesan or pecorino cheese for grating (optional)
1 lemon (only use this if you're skipping the cheese)
salt
pepper
olive oil
Get your pasta boiling in salted water and get your broiler (grill) heating to maximum.
Cut the stalks off the fennel and set them aside. Stand the bulb up and cut it in half, then slice the halves as thin as possible. Put them on a sheet pan. Peel any wilted outer leaves off the radicchio and slice of the root end, being careful to leave as much of the core as possible to hold the leaves together. Cut it into wedges and put them on the pan. Drain and rinse the beans and put them on the pan.
Drizzle all the veg with olive oil and sprinkle over salt, pepper, chili flakes and caraway seeds. Put the pan right under the broiler for a few minutes, just until things are starting to brown — beware the beans might start to explode.
Drain the pasta and throw it onto the sheet pan with all the veg. Pick the green fronds off of the fennel stalks, chop them up and throw them on the pan. Drizzle on some fresh olive oil, and if you don't plan to garnish with cheese, juice on the lemon. Toss to combine. If you didn't use the lemon, grate cheese over the finished plates.
