Steps
To make the salad with chickpeas and confit cherry tomatoes, wash and clean the cherry tomatoes. Cut them in half and place them on the air fryer basket, lined with parchment paper, with the cut side facing up.
Salt the cherry tomatoes, then season them with sugar, minced garlic, oregano, and thyme. Drizzle extra virgin olive oil over the tomatoes
Cook in a hot air fryer at 320°F for 10 minutes. Then increase to 355°F and cook for another 10 minutes, and finally at 390°F for 5 minutes. The cherry tomatoes will be ready when they are slightly roasted but not dry.
In a pan, pour a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, curry, and chopped onion. Put on the heat and slightly wilt the onion.
Then add the chickpeas and sauté them in the pan for a couple of minutes, to flavor and slightly toast them. Salt at the end of cooking.
In a plate or bowl, pour the salad (previously washed and cleaned) and dress it with chickpeas and cherry tomatoes.
If desired, you can add oil, vinegar, or lemon, a pinch of salt and pepper. Enjoy your meal!
