Ingredients
- 3 very ripe tomatoes, thickly sliced
- 250 g buffalo mozzarella
- a handful of basil leaves
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- flaky salt
- black pepper
Method
Layer
Alternate slices of tomato and torn mozzarella on a plate. Both should be at room temperature — fridge-cold mozzarella tastes of nothing.
Dress
Tuck in the basil leaves, season with flaky salt and pepper, and pour over the olive oil. With three ingredients there is nowhere to hide, so use the best you have.
