Ingredients

125g buffalo mozzarella
225g pack Waitrose Pome Dei Moro Tomatoes, halved
50g pitted Kalamata olives, halved
2 clove/s garlic, sliced
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
½ Waitrose plain ciabatta
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 handful basil leaves

Method

Preheat the oven to 220°C, gas mark 7. Take the buffalo mozzarella out of the fridge, so that it has time to warm up a little before serving (you don’t want it to be fridge-cold).
Toss the tomatoes, olives and garlic in a roasting dish with the oil, then season. Roast for 8 minutes, then give everything a stir and return to the oven. Put the ciabatta on a sheet of foil and put in the oven. Cook both for another 10 minutes.
Tear the mozzarella and divide between 2 plates. As soon as the tomatoes come out of the oven, stir in the vinegar. Spoon them over the mozzarella, scatter over the basil and serve with the ciabatta.
