This is a fabulous little starter from 'The Silver Spoon', which is a fabulous Italian recipe book which I received from an awesome Redditor in the Arbitary day exchange earlier in the year.
It is simple but effective, like so many great Italian dishes. I have made this several times, because it is tasty, always received well and can be mostly made ahead leaving more time with guests and more time to concentrate on creating tasty mains and desserts.
This is just tomatoes, spring onion and olives chopped and put in a bowl with some parsley, salt and pepper and a drizzle of olive oil. This can sit for a while and is all the upfront prep required!
When you are ready for your starters, toast some white bread and use a cookie cutter to cut a round - you could use some sliced ciabatta or any other bread that takes your fancy.
butter the bread lightly, top with the tomato, olive mix and top that with a slice of mozzarella. Sprinkle the whole thing with a little oregano and hey presto - tasty tasty.
I can even get my Husband to eat and enjoy this and he hates olives and fresh tomatoes, so it's got to be worth a try!
