  • Yield: 2 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • an array of tomatoes – I used 2 truss (2 roma, a handful of colourful heirlooms, cherry and grape.)
  • 1 ball of buffalo mozzarella or tub of boccocini
  • 1 brown onion
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar or rice malt syrup
  • 2 slices of bread (ripped into small chunks)
  • large handful of fresh basil
  • olive oil
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. On a baking tray, place your ripped bread and coat with olive oil and a sprinkle of salt. Place in the oven for 4-5 minutes on 180 deg cel (355 degrees Farenheit) and bake until crispy. Think croutons!
  2. Slice brown onion and in a fry pan over medium heat, combine onion, balsamic vinegar and sugar until the onion cooks down and vinegar has caramelized.
  3. Slice and dice your tomatoes – I chose to mix it up and chop them all different shapes and sized but all the same looks nice too.
  4. On a large plate, combine the tomato, mozzarella, chopped basil and caramelized onion.
  5. Top with the crunchy croutons, drizzle with a good quality extra virgin olive oil, salt and pepper and enjoy.
