Insalata Caprese [Tomaten-Mozzarella-Salat]

361 days to go, 242 recipes

From my pizza margherita I had some tomatoes and mozarella left over. So I checked, what to do with it and ... no ... basically I knew what to do with it, but I didn't know if the cooking guide had it as recipe. Of course they have. It's a classic.

Insalata Caprese for 4 [232kcal/person]:
400g tomatoes
150g mozzarella
pepper to your taste (right, here they're using it)
basil to your taste
Dressing:
4EL olive oil
1TL balsamico
salt

1. Wash the tomatoes, cut in half, remove stem and then cut into half moons.
2. Pat the mozzarella with a kitchen towel. Then cut it into half moons like the tomatoes.
3. Arrange on a plate - tomatoes and mozzarella in turn. Put on basil leaves. (if not eaten immediatly put in the fridge)
4. In a bowl combine salt and balsamico. Add olive oil and whisk! If not mixed properly some black bubbles will swim in the oil. If mixed well you'll get a evenly brown dressing.
5. Pour dressing over the salad with a small spoon. Add freshly crushed pepper.
6. Buon appetito!
