Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a small baking sheet with aluminum foil. (5 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

In a bowl, gently toss the cherry tomatoes and sliced garlic with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Season with kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper, ensuring even distribution. (3 minutes)

03

Step
15 mins

Spread the tomato mixture in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the tomatoes are softened and beginning to burst. (15 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

While the tomatoes are roasting, gently drain the burrata or mozzarella balls. (2 minutes)

05

Step
3 mins

Transfer the warm, roasted tomatoes to a serving platter. Arrange the burrata or mozzarella balls amongst the tomatoes. (3 minutes)

06

Step
2 mins

Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the aged balsamic vinegar over the salad. Season with an additional pinch of kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper, if desired. (2 minutes)

07

Step
2 mins

Gently tear the fresh basil leaves into a chiffonade (thin strips) and scatter them generously over the salad. Serve immediately. (2 minutes)

For an enhanced depth of flavor, consider using a balsamic glaze instead of balsamic vinegar.
If using mozzarella balls, allow them to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving to enhance their creaminess.
Fresh oregano or thyme can be added to the tomatoes before roasting for an herbaceous note.
A sprinkle of red pepper flakes will introduce a gentle heat.
