    Recipe :

    To Dry the Tomatoes (do the day before) :

    - Cut the tomatoes into quarters, remove seeds.
    - Sprinkle a baking tray with salt, sugar and pepper.
    - Slice garlic carefully.
    - Put tomatoes on baking tray, with a slice of garlic under each one.
    - Put in ove, for 45 - 60 minutes.

    Basil :
    - Blanch the the basil in boiling water, with sea salt.
    - Refresh with iced water.
    - Strain and mix.
    - Adjust seasoning.

    Celeriac :
    - Cook in the same water, refresh and season. Put to one side.

    - Season each piece of tomato with basil.

    - Place a couple of pieces of tomato on each plate and top with celeriac (see photo).

    Advice :
    Try making 'vegetable crisps' for a fun starter or snack : Thinly slice some beetroot, courgette, celery, carrots or any other vegetables you fancy, then arrange on an oven tray.
    Cook at a very low heat for 30 minutes, by which time the vegetables will have lost their liquid and become crisp and crunchy, without any oil !
