Recipes
Ingredients:
- 2 cups small yellow cherry tomatoes, rinsed
- 2 cups small red grape or cherry tomatoes, rinsed
- 4 garlic cloves, lightly crushed
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- Coarse, flaky salt
- 1 pound fresh mozzarella
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Handful small basil leaves (or torn basil leaves)
Directions
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Spread the tomatoes on a baking sheet large enough to hold them in a single layer. Add the garlic cloves. Sprinkle over the olive oil and season with salt.
- Roast the tomatoes until they begin to wrinkle and caramelize, and their juices release into the oil, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
- Cut the mozzarella into 1/8-inch-thick slices and arrange, overlapping slightly, on a platter. Spoon the tomatoes and — most importantly — their juices and the oil, over the mozzarella. Season with salt and pepper. Drop the basil leaves on top. Enjoy!
