My Favourite 5… Tomatoes

When you grow your own tomatoes, you’re rewarded with the tastiest fruit possible as you can pick them at their sweetest and sun-ripened best. Many won’t make it back into the kitchen!

TINY TIM

This adorable tomato produces masses of delicious cherry-sized fruit. They’re ideal for tossing whole into salads and pasta, or you can go full gourmet and roast trusses of them with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Tiny Tim is also a favourite with kids, who love snacking on these little tomatoes out in the garden. Don’t tell them they’re healthy! It is a pint-sized dwarf plant, so it doesn’t take up much room, and is perfect for growing in a pot on a sunny balcony or patio.
