- Place bugs onto a roasting tray, cut-side up, and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with oil then roast on the middle shelf for 8-10 minutes, until lightly caramelised and cooked through. (You will know if the bug is cooked if the meat easily pulls away from the shell and is opaque). Remove the meat from 8 halves and cut into chunks.
- Heat butter in a large frypan over medium heat for 1-2 minutes until foamy. Add shallots and cook for 3 minutes until soft. Add garlic and tomatoes and cook, stirring, for a further 2 minutes until tomatoes begin to soften but still hold their shape. Add wine and simmer for 1-2 minutes until almost completely evaporated. Add cream and bug meat and bring to a simmer to heat through.
