Creamy burrata, juicy ripe tomatoes, fresh basil, and a drizzle of olive oil — the perfect quick appetizer or light meal.
Ingredients
For the Caprese Plate
1 ball burrata cheese
2–3 ripe tomatoes, sliced
A handful of fresh basil, chopped or torn
2–3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
Salt (preferably flaky sea salt)
Freshly cracked black pepper
Directions
Prepare the Tomatoes
Slice tomatoes evenly and arrange them on a plate.
Season lightly with salt and black pepper.
Add the Burrata
Place the burrata ball in the center.
Gently tear it open so the creamy center spreads slightly.
Garnish
Sprinkle basil generously over the top.
Drizzle olive oil over both the tomatoes and burrata.
Add more cracked black pepper if desired.
Serve
Enjoy immediately with toasted bread or as a fresh side dish.
