Prepare the Roasted Garlic
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wrap the garlic cloves in aluminum foil with a drizzle of olive oil. Roast for 30-35 minutes until soft and golden.

Make the Charred Tomato Sauce
In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the cherry tomatoes and cook until they start to blister and char, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly, then blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
