  1. Preheat the oven to 180C (160C fan forced). Place the tomatoes into large baking dishes and scatter over the garlic. Drizzle with a little of the olive oil. Roast 30 minutes or until the tomatoes are plump and well roasted and have slightly browned edges. Allow to cool.

Reserve fresh tomato sauce and discard dry skin mixture. Season the sauce well with salt and pepper and sugar.
