1. For the sun-blush tomatoes: preheat the oven to 110C/gas ¼.
2. Cut the tomatoes in half and lay on a tray, sliced side up. Sprinkle with thyme leaves and extra virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Put in the oven to dry slowly for 45 minutes. 3. For the risotto gently fry the shallots and garlic in the olive oil until soft and translucent. 4. Add the rice and stir to coat well in the oil for a couple of minutes. 5. Add the wine and cook out but reducing to a glace. 6. Gradually add the stock, one ladle at a time, stirring constantly. Make sure all the liquid has bubbled off before adding the next ladleful. 7. Once all the vegetable stock has been added, stir in the tomato sauce and continue to cook out. - The risotto is ready when tender, but with a little bite to it. It should take about 20 minutes - you may not need all the stock, or you may need more. 8. Take off the heat and fold in three quarters of the basil, parmesan and sun-blush tomatoes and their oil. 9. Stir in the mascarpone and season with salt and pepper. 10. Serve in shallow bowls topped with the remaining tomatoes, a spoon on fresh pesto on the top, the remaining torn basil leaves, parmesan shavings, and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
