Caprese Salad With Basil
Jump to navigation
Jump to search
Caprese salad is simple to create, yet complex and refreshing in flavour. Good, fresh ingredients are key to its construction, so here's what you'll need:
- 2 tomatoes
- Bocconcini cheese
- 12-15 fresh basil leaves
- 15ml olive oil
- 5ml Balsamic vinegar
- Salt and pepper
Slice the tomatoes like you would for a sandwich. Not too thick, not too thin. Do the same with the cheese and shred or chop up the basil. Combine olive oil and vinegar in a vessel and mix well, adjusting quantities to taste.
Arrange tomatoes and cheese on a small plate, either by layering or stacking the ingredients and drizzle the oil and vinegar over everything sparingly. Add salt and pepper, and refridgerate.
