It’s no secret that tomatoes aren’t at their best in the cooler months,but sometimes you still want the flavour that comes from a fresh tomato rather than
a tinned one. You can get decent hothouse tomatoes,but make sure they’re fully ripe. Roasting them like this really intensifies the flavour,which is stunning with the black barley. If you like,you can skip the fish and serve the salad with crumbled feta on top,or pair it with grilled lamb chops or roast chicken. It’s also great served cold the next day.
