I am very lucky to have one of my closest friends being my neighbour. Now and then we meet at The Cottage to catch up and share the gossip while nibbling away on some food and sipping great wine.
Last night was one of these girly nights and I decided to make some bruschetta with mozzarella cheese. If you can, try to buy Toonbridge Mozzarella as it is delicious on this and produced in Macroom. I used baguette rather than ciabatta which would be the proper bread to be making bruschetta but I didn’t have the time to shop around or to even bake one myself – so baguette from the supermarket had to be enough.
I also used small plum tomatoes – I believe that they have more flavour but use what ever tomato you like or have ready in the fridge.
It is a tasty little snack without too much hassle – raffled up in minutes – so giving you loads of time to enjoy the company of your friends.
For 4 people you will need
- 4 medium baguettes
- Olive oil
- 2 tomatoes (or about 6 small ones), chopped
- 1 garlic clove (peeled and halved)
- 2 balls mozzarella
- Basil, chopped
- Seasoning
Bon Appetit
