how to cook crostini with buffalo mozzarella

The success of this starter is all in the cheese. If you can’t find the freshest

buffalo mozzarella, don’t be tempted to use stringy, ordinary mozzarella

or boccincini. The best substitute would be a fresh goats cheese or even

some humble ricotta.

You can roast the peppers yourself, but I find that the jars of pre-prepared

roast peppers or capsicum are perfectly fine if you’re short of time.

8 thin slices baguette

1 large ball bufffalo mozzarella, torn into chunks

roasted & peeled red pepper (capsicum), finely sliced

a few fresh basil leaves

Toast baguette slices lightly on one side.

Layer each round with mozzarella chunks, top with a few slices of

pepper (capsicum) and a basil leaf or two.
