One of the most flavourful combinations is found in a traditional Caprese salad - fresh basil, mozzarella, tomatoes, balsamic, and olive oil! Now imagine it as a sandwich or on toast - worlds collide!
Ingredients
Tomato sliced thinly
Fresh mozzarella (or opt for bocconcini cheese), sliced
Fresh basil leaves, rinsed and pat dry
Coarse sea salt, to taste
1 tsp balsamic vinegar
A drizzle of Olive Oil
1 or 2 Slices of your favourite bread, fresh or lightly toasted
Directions
On a fresh or lightly toasted bread of your choice (we enjoy a good sourdough, calabrese bread, or whole grain), arrange the sliced cheese, overlapping them slightly. Place the thinly sliced tomato on top and sprinkle with salt.
Place the fresh basil leaves on top and drizzle with balsamic and olive oil.
Enjoy! (you may need a knife and fork for this one!)
A simple, yet delicious dish; full of flavour!
