An easy way to spice up the mild cheese, these marinated mozzarella balls make an excellent canapé on a cocktail stick or jazz up so many salads

Units Scale
  • 300g mini mozzarella balls
  • 2 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 120ml extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • •1 tbsp dried mixed herbs
  • Small handful of fresh basil, finely sliced

Instructions

  1. Combine all ingredients into a large mason or bowl if you prefer. Leave to marinate in the fridge for at least one hour up to one day.
  2. Serve in a large bowl with fresh bread. Or use to make crostini with halved cherry tomatoes and fresh basil. They make a great canapé if you pop them on a cocktail stick with a some cherry tomato halves and fresh basil. I also love these in a simple tomato salad - they’re so delicious!
