Emma Dean’s recipe for Parmesan Crisp Caprese

Parmesan Crisp Caprese

Ingredients:

• 12 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
• A few grinds of freshly ground black pepper
• 6 pieces of Montefiore Ovoline, halved
• 12 slices freshest vine ripened tomatoes
• 12 leaves of basil
• Extra virgin olive oil
• A few drops of the best quality red wine vinegar

Method:

Preheat oven to 200 degrees Celsius

Toss the parmesan together with the black pepper.

Place small mounds of parmesan onto a paper lined baking tray and bake for 5-7 minutes until golden.

Remove from the oven and let cool completely.

Place a leaf of basil and then a piece of tomato on each parmesan crisp, and season lightly with salt. Top with a halved Ovoline.

Drizzle with olive oil and a few drops of balsamic vinegar (less is more here).

Serve immediately as a delicious party snack or an impressive starter for your next dinner party!
