Nothing says summer like tomatoes. And British Tomato Fortnight (27 May-9 June) is the perfect time to celebrate the start of everyone’s favourite vegetable season.
This annual event is all about indulging in the vibrant flavours of British-grown tomatoes, harvested at their peak to deliver the best taste and nutrition.
Eating seasonally is more than just a trend – it’s a sustainable choice that supports local farmers and reduces our environmental footprint. By seeking out produce at its freshest, you’re ensuring maximum flavour and nutritional value, all while giving back to the Earth.
This year, we’re showcasing the Piccolo cherry tomato. These tiny gems are bursting with sweetness and a perfect balance of acidity, making them the stars of our featured recipes below.
From a refreshing cauliflower couscous salad and a comforting kale and cannellini bean soup, to tomato and halloumi skewers, these dishes are perfect for the season.

Piccolo, kale and cannellini bean soup with Piccolo bread
A comforting plant-based vegetable and bean soup served with Piccolo, thyme and olive tear and share bread.
Serves: 4
Time: 3 hours
Ingredients:
For the bread dough:
1.5 tsp easy bake yeast
1 tsp light brown sugar
500g strong white bread flour, plus extra for rolling
50g plant-based butter substitute (or unsalted butter), diced
1 tsp salt
Olive oil, for greasing
For the bread filling:
300g Piccolo cherry tomatoes, halved
1 tbsp olive oil
2 large onions, finely sliced
1 tsp light brown sugar
10 black olives, sliced
Small handful fresh thyme, leaves only
Flaked sea salt, to taste
For the soup:
1 tbsp olive oil
1 onion, diced
2 carrots, diced
2 sprigs rosemary
1 bay leaf
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 tsp smoked paprika
1.2 litres vegetable stock
100g fresh kale
1 x 400g can cannelleni beans
160g dried spaghetti, broken into pieces
300g Piccolo cherry tomatoes
Chopped fresh parsley, to serve (optional)
Method:
1. For the bread dough, heat 300ml of water in a pan or microwave until hand-hot. Add the yeast and sugar, stir well and leave for 5 minutes.
2. Tip the flour into a bowl and, using your hands, rub the vegan butter (or regular butter) into the flour to resemble fine breadcrumbs. Add the salt.
3. Pour the liquid into the bowl and combine. Turn out onto a clean, lightly floured work surface and knead for about 10 minutes. Clean or wipe the bowl and lightly grease it with oil and return the dough to the bowl, cover and leave in a warm place until doubled in size (about an hour to an hour and a half).
4. For the bread filling, preheat the oven to 160C/Gas 3 (fan) and put the tomatoes cut side up on a tray lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle with sea salt and roast for about 30 minutes, or until soft. Leave to cool.
5. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan, add the sliced onions and sugar and cook for about 20-25 minutes, or until soft and lightly caramelised. If the pan starts to dry out, you may need to add a splash of water. Remove from the heat and cool.
6. Grease a deep square tin (about 23cm x 23cm) with olive oil. Once the dough has doubled in size, dust the work surface with a little more flour, knock the air out and then roll into a 20 x 30cm rectangle shape. Spread the onions over the top, add the olives and Piccolo cherry tomato halves and sprinkle with thyme leaves.
7. Roll the dough up in a tight spiral from the longest edge and then slice into 9 buns. Arrange them in the tin, cut side up, cover and leave in a warm place for around 30 minutes, or until doubled.
8. Preheat the oven to 180C/Gas 4 (fan). Bake the bread for about 25 minutes, or until golden-brown and risen. Brush a little oil over the bread and return to the oven for another 5 minutes. Remove from the oven.
9. Meanwhile, for the soup, heat the olive oil in a pan and add the onion, carrots, rosemary, bay leaf and garlic cloves. Cook until softened, then stir in the smoked paprika.
10. Pour in the vegetable stock, bring to the boil and then reduce to a simmer. Add the kale, beans and broken spaghetti and cook for about 15 minutes, or until the spaghetti is cooked through.
11. Just before serving, add the whole Piccolo cherry tomatoes and the parsley (if liked). Serve with the tear and share bread.

Trio of plant-based Piccolo crostini canapés
To mark British Tomato Fortnight, try any or all of these vegan Piccolo canapés made with roasted and fresh Piccolo cherry tomatoes.
Makes: about 24
Time: 1 hour
Ingredients:
For the crostini:
1 baguette
Flaky sea salt
For the Piccolo and olive tapenade crostini:
200g Piccolo cherry tomatoes
1 garlic bulb, broken into cloves
Drizzle olive oil
120g canned chickpeas (drained weight)
1 tbsp tahini
½ lemon, juice only
Small pinch cayenne pepper
Few snipped chives
For the roasted Piccolo and caramelised garlic on hummus crostini:
150g drained pitted Kalamata olives
½ preserved lemon, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 heaped tsp drained capers
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tsp pomegranate molasses
Few sprigs fresh thyme, leaves only, plus few extra leaves to garnish
Drizzle extra virgin olive oil
100g Piccolo cherry tomatoes
Salt and freshly ground pepper
For the Piccolo, watermelon and pea salsa crostini:
¼ red onion, finely sliced
1 lime, juice only
50g frozen peas, defrosted
150g Piccolo cherry tomatoes
150g watermelon
Small handful coriander
Method:
1. For the crostini, preheat the oven to 200C/Gas 5 (fan) and line two baking trays with parchment paper. Brush both sides of the bread with olive oil and place on the trays in a single layer.
2. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden-brown – keep an eye on the bread and remove once toasted. Set aside.
3. For variation one, put the whole Piccolo cherry tomatoes and the garlic cloves on a separate tray from the bread, drizzle with olive oil and and add to the oven still at at 200C/Gas 5 (fan). Roast for 15-20 minutes, or until darkened. Remove and set aside.
4. Using a blender or food processor, blend together the drained chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice and cayenne pepper with a drizzle of olive oil. Add half of the garlic cloves and half of the roasted Piccolo cherry tomatoes and blend – the Piccolos do not need to be completely smooth in the hummus as it is nice if there is still a few flashes of red flecked throughout.
5. Top the crostini with a dollop of hummus and a couple of the roasted Piccolos and garlic, finally topped with chives.
6. For variation two, clean out the food processor or blender. Put the olives, preserved lemon, garlic, capers, red wine vinegar, pomegranate molasses and thyme leaves into the blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Add a drizzle of olive oil to loosen slightly.
7. Slice the Piccolos in half and then top the crostini with the tapenade, halved fresh Piccolo cherry tomatoes and a few thyme leaves.
8. For variation three, slice the red onion and place in a bowl. Pour the lime juice over the red onion and set aside. Using a fork, mash the peas in a bowl once they are fully defrosted.
9. Chop the Piccolo cherry tomatoes into quarters and chop the watermelon into cubes roughly the same size as the Piccolos and put in a bowl together. Chop the coriander and add it to the bowl.
10. Spread the mashed peas on the crostini, topped with the sliced red onion, watermelon and Piccolo cherry tomatoes.
11. Serve all three crostini on a serving plate or platter.
Piccolo, basil and mozzarella chicken breast with balsamic glaze
Chicken, melting mozzarella and roasted Piccolos make a crowd-pleasing chicken dinner, all slathered in a sweet and garlicky balsamic glaze.
Sevres: 4
Time: 1 hour
Ingredients:
For the Piccolo-stuffed chicken:
16 Piccolo cherry tomatoes
4 chicken breasts
4 mozzarella cheese slices (or similar melting cheese)
12 large basil leaves
2 tbsp olive oil
Cooked rice, to serve
Flaked sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the balsamic glaze sauce:
100ml balsamic glaze
1 tsp light brown sugar
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
Method:
1. Preheat the oven to 160C/Gas 3 (fan) and put the tomatoes cut side up on a tray lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle with sea salt and roast for about 30 minutes, or until soft. Leave to cool.
2. Cut the chicken breasts horizontally through the middle and three-quarters of the way through so that you can open each one out like a book. Cut each mozzarella slice in half and place the two pieces over the bottom half of each chicken breast, and season with salt and pepper. Top with four basil leaves and then the cooled Piccolo halves. Tightly wrap each chicken breast in heavy-duty plastic wrap (look for one that states it will not melt or warp) and secure well.
3. Put a large saucepan of water on to simmer with a steamer on top. Put the chicken parcels in the steamer, cover and cook for 14 minutes. Remove and leave to rest for 5 minutes.
4. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan. Unwrap the chicken and place in the hot oil. Reserve any juices from the parcels. Once hot and browned on one side, add the balsamic glaze, sugar and garlic to the pan, along with the cooking juices and cook until the glaze has thickened. Turn over to brown the other side of the chicken.
5. Serve with rice.
Roasted Piccolo, spinach and parmesan quiche
A buttery pastry filled with roasted Piccolo cherry tomatoes, garlic and spinach, all bound together with a creamy egg and Parmesan mixture – perfect for a picnic or a summery supper with a green salad.
Serves: 6
Time: 2 hours
Ingredients:
For the pastry:
250g plain flour, plus extra for dusting
125g chilled butter, diced
1 free-range egg yolk
For the filling:
200g Piccolo cherry tomatoes, halved
1 head garlic, unpeeled cloves
2 tbsp olive oil
100g spinach
3 free-range eggs
250ml double cream
60g grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Method:
1. For the pastry, tip the flour in a bowl and add the pieces of butter. Rub in using your fingertips to a breadcrumb-like texture. Stir in the egg yolk – you may need a little more liquid to bring it together as a dough in which case you can add a splash of the separated egg white or just a little cold water. Using your hands, bring it together to make a dough, wrap in food-grade reusable beeswax wrap or cling film and set aside in the fridge for 20 minutes.
2. For the filling, preheat the oven to 180C/Gas 4 (fan). Put the Piccolo cherry tomatoes, cut side-up on a lined baking tray. Scatter the unpeeled garlic cloves around and drizzle everything with half of the olive oil. Roast for 20 minutes, then remove from the oven and leave to cool, dabbing with a little kitchen paper to remove any excess moisture. Once cool enough to handle, unpeel the garlic and set aside.
3. Remove the pastry from the fridge and let it come to room temperature, then roll out the pastry on a lightly floured work surface and line a 23cm pastry case. Transfer the pastry-lined case to the fridge and leave for another 20 minutes or so.
4. To continue the filling, heat the remaining olive oil a frying pan. Add the spinach and cook for a minute or two, until wilted. Remove from the heat and leave to cool.
5. Cover the pastry base with parchment paper and fill the base with baking beans. Bake for 15 minutes at 180C/Gas 4 (fan) and then remove from the oven and carefully take the baking beans and paper out of the case. Return to the oven to bake for another 15 minutes.
6. To finish the filling, whisk the eggs in a bowl and add the double cream. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
7. Remove the pastry case from the oven. Put nearly all the spinach in the base of the case and sprinkle over nearly all the cheese on top. Pour in two-thirds of the egg-cream mixture. Arrange the garlic cloves and Piccolo cherry tomatoes on top. Dot in the remaining few leaves on spinach around the tomatoes and pour over the rest of the egg-cream mixture, followed by the remaining cheese.
8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden-brown and set. Leave to cool before slicing to serve.

The roasted Piccolo salsa that accompanies these beef and Piccolo-stuffed peppers is irresistible! This recipe makes a jar-full, so save the rest to have another time with cheese, more Piccolos and crackers.
Serves: 2
Time: 1 hour 20 minutes
Ingredients:
For the Piccolo salsa:
400g Piccolo cherry tomatoes, halved
4 garlic cloves, unpeeled
1 onion, sliced into rounds
1 red chilli, halved and seeds removed
1 tsp chipotle paste
Small handful coriander, chopped
1 lime, juice only
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the stuffed peppers:
75g basmati rice
Olive oil, for frying and drizzling
1 onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
300g beef mince
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tbsp tomato purée
½ x 400g tin black beans, drained
200g Piccolo cherry tomatoes, chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 bell peppers
50g Jarlsburg cheese, grated
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the guacamole:
2 ripe avocados
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1 tbsp fresh lime juice
8 Piccolo cherry tomatoes, chopped
Salt, to taste
Method:
1. Make the Piccolo salsa ahead of serving – preheat the grill to high and put the tomatoes, garlic, onion and red chilli on a tray and grill until the ingredients are blistering and starting to go a little black (about 8 minutes, but keep an eye on them). Remove from the oven and leave to cool. Peel the garlic, then tip everything into a food processor or blender.
2. Add the chipotle paste, coriander and lime juice and blend until smooth. Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Set aside until ready to serve. You will have more than you need for this recipe – store any remaining salsa in the fridge and enjoy with other recipes.
3. For the stuffed peppers, preheat the oven to 180C/Gas 4 (fan).
4. Tip the rice into a pan with a lid and add 150ml water. Wrap the lid in a tea towel and cover the pan and cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until the water has absorbed and the rice is cooked.
5. Meanwhile heat a dash of olive oil in a pan and fry the onion until soft. Add the garlic and cook for a few minutes more. Remove from the pan. Fry the beef in the same pan (add a little more oil if needed) and cook until the beef is browned on all sides. Return the onion and garlic to the pan.
6. Add the oregano and tomato purée, drained black beans and Piccolos. Cook to soften the Piccolos – add a splash of water if drying out – and then stir in the rice. Cook for a few minutes. Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Remove from the heat.
7. Cut the tops off the peppers with a sharp knife, remove the cores and place the peppers upright on a baking tray. Drizzle with olive oil, roast for five minutes until slightly softened and then remove from the oven before spooning the beef and rice mixture back in, top with the grated cheese, cover with foil and then bake for 30 minutes.
8. Remove the foil cover and cook for another five minutes or so, or until the cheese is nicely brown.
9. For the guacamole, put the avocado in a bowl with the garlic, lime juice and salt. Lightly mash it with a fork and then stir in the chopped Piccolo cherry tomatoes.
10. Serve the peppers with the Piccolo salsa and guacamole on the side.
Piccolo, pesto and goat’s cheese tartlets
These Piccolo tartlets are served with a rich Piccolo and cranberry sauce infused with aromatic spices, showcasing the perfect blend of sweet, savoury, and tangy flavours.
Makes: 8
Time: 1 hour 40 minutes
Ingredients:
For the Piccolo and cranberry sauce:
300g Piccolo cherry tomatoes
200g fresh cranberries (or frozen, defrosted)
50g dried cranberries
1 red onion, finely chopped
1 cinnamon stick
2 cloves
½ tsp allspice
125g light soft brown sugar
100ml red wine vinegar
For the pesto:
60g pine nuts
50g Parmesan cheese, grated
1 small garlic clove, roughly chopped
Large bunch basil
Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
Salt, to taste
For the Piccolo tartlets:
320g readymade all-butter puff pastry
1 free-range egg, lightly beaten
About 100g pesto (from above)
About 115g soft goats’ cheese
24 small Piccolo cherry tomatoes
Green salad, to serve
Method:
1. For the sauce, put the Piccolo cherry tomatoes, fresh and dried cranberries, onion, cinnamon, cloves, allspice and 100ml of water in a large pan. Simmer for 15 minutes. Add the sugar and red wine vinegar and simmer for another 25 minutes or so, until thickened.
2. For the pesto, heat a small frying pan and dry fry the pine nuts until browned. Tip the pine nuts into a food processor and pulse a couple of times. Add the Parmesan and garlic and pulse again. Pick the basil leaves and add them to the food processor, along with a generous glug of olive oil.
3. Pulse a couple of times and add more olive oil for a smoother finish. Add the lemon juice and salt, to taste, to finish. Set aside.
4. For the Piccolo tartlets, using a 11cm cutter, cut out 8 circles from the puff pastry. Grease 2 x 4-hole Yorkshire Pudding tins and press the pastry circles into the tins. You will need to combine the off-cuts of pastry to make the final two pastry circles. Place in the fridge for about 20 minutes to harden.
5. Preheat the oven to 200C/Gas 5 (fan). Brush the pastry with egg and then cook in the oven for eight minutes.
6. Remove from the oven – the pastry will have puffed up. Simply press the middle with the back of a spoon to push the puffed middle part back down. Dollop a little pesto into each tartlet and top with some goats’ cheese. Press down three Piccolo cherry tomatoes into each tartlet.
7. Return the tins to the oven for another six minutes, or until cooked. Serve with the Piccolo and cranberry sauce and green salad.
