What could be better than a lovely Caprese salad? Likely there are more complicated things in life but purity triumphs when we’re short on time.

Ingredients

  • 1 slice /  30g Fresh mozzarella
  • 1 slice /  30g Tomato
  • 1 bunch / 3g Fresh basil leaf
  • 1 teaspoon / 15ml Extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt to taste

How to make Caprese salad

  1. Cut a slice from the fresh mozzarella cheese.
  2. Cut a slice of tomato that is similar in size and width to the mozzarella.Caprese Salad Recipe
  3. Fresh basil is essential for this dish. If we haven’t got huge leaves just use more smaller ones.Caprese Salad Recipe
  4. A drizzle of olive oil will bind everything together. It’s as essential as the basil and as it is with good olive oil, the more expensive the better.

Enjoy!

Note: It’s not recommended to make them well ahead as the mozzarella will seep liquid out and ruin our plating. A couple of minutes will be fine but anything over half an hour is risky, especially at room temperature.
