Pop your roasting dish into the oven, and bake for 15 minutes. When the timer beeps, take it out, mix it all up, and bake for a further 15 minutes.

When it beeps again, remove the dish from the oven, add in the lemon (1/2 cut into wedges) and tomato (2 x large, cut into wedges), give it a good mix, and bake for another 10 minutes.
