Marinated Roasted Tomato Jam

Grilled Focaccia

Garnish

Method

Marinated Roasted Tomato Jam

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare Tomatoes

    In a mixing bowl, combine the cherry tomatoes, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic, fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat.

  3. 3

    Roast Tomatoes

    Spread the tomato mixture onto a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the tomatoes are soft and slightly caramelized.

  4. 4

    Cool and Mash

    Remove the tomatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly. Once cooled, mash them gently with a fork for a jam-like consistency.

Grilled Focaccia

  1. 5

    Prepare Focaccia

    Slice the focaccia bread into thick pieces, about 1-inch wide.

  2. 6

    Brush with Olive Oil

    Brush both sides of the focaccia slices with 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt.

  3. 7

    Grill Focaccia

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Grill the focaccia slices for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until grill marks appear and the bread is crispy.

Assemble the Dish

  1. 8

    Plate the Ingredients

    On a serving platter, place the grilled focaccia slices.

  2. 9

    Add Burrata

    Place the burrata cheese in the center of the platter, surrounded by the roasted tomato jam.

  3. 10

    Garnish

    Sprinkle fresh basil leaves and pine nuts over the burrata. Drizzle with balsamic glaze to taste.
