Easy roasted white beans with tomatoes
"You could perhaps call this dish the Italian-inspired Baked Beans. In this recipe, almost all the ingredients are mixed and roasted in the oven for approx. 30 min. Important: When everything is mixed at the end, let the bean-tomato mix rest for approx. 10 min. so that it thickens a bit and thus creates the desired creaminess. If you have Za'atar or Ras el Hanout, season with them before and after the baking process, or at the end, instead of basil, add cilantro or other herbs on top and serve pita bread with it. This is how easily you can carry the dish into other worlds of taste."
