- Add the whole cherry tomatoes and cook for 2–3 minutes until softened. Using a fork, squish the tomatoes so they release their juices. Add the canned tomatoes and chicken stock and stir through. Bring to the boil, then turn down the heat until it’s just bubbling. Cook for 10–15 minutes until it thickens slightly.1 cup cherry tomatoes, 400 g canned diced tomatoes, 3/4 cup chicken stock
