Caprese Salad and Sandwich

Methods

• Preheat oven to 180º C.
• To make salad take half the tomato slices, half basil leaves, half the olive oil, salt and black pepper powder in a mixing bowl and toss.
• To make sandwiches keep a star shaped cookie cutter on the bread slices and cut out stars. Spread them on a baking tray and keep the tray in the preheated oven and toast.
• To make each sandwich, place remaining tomato slices, remaining basil leaves and half the cheese slices between 2 bread slices.
• Keep these sandwiches in the baking tray and bake till the cheese melts. Take the tray out of the oven and arrange them on a serving platter.
