Tomato and Mozzarella Salad
Recipe by Graham
Mozzarella is a soft Italian cheese that is usually bought in sealed packets of about 125g (nearly 5 oz). The mix of tomato and Mozzarella makes a delicious salad accompaniment or can be served on its own as a fresh summer starter course.

How to Cook Tomato and Mozzarella Salad
- Slice the tomatoes and arrange on a plate. Slice the Mozzarella and place the slices between the tomatoes so that the arrangement alternates tomato-cheese-tomato etc. Salt the dish to taste. Peel and finely chop the shallot then sprinkle it over the tomato and Mozzarella. Pour about half a cup of Summer Oil Dressing over the dish and sprinkle with fresh basil leaves to create a summer platter that is equally delicious on its own, with a cold meats, or as an accompaniment to a barbeque or with a nice steak.
GRAHAM'S HOT TIP:
Don't be mean with the basil - it improves both the appearance and the taste.

| September 13 2014 Thank you so much! Forgot I had to fix a salad. took more time to run down the street to get the cheese than to make the salad. I think it was everyones favorite dish.
