Tomato & Burrata Salad
by
Oliver Gross
A perfect dish to share as a side dish or a snack in the sun. Semi dried tomatoes, creamy burrata... What's not to love? And it's even better with a slice of sourdough toast.
The oregano is optional here.
You can substitute the burrata with mozzarella or stracciatella.
Instead of sherry vinegar, you can use balsamic or red wine vinegar.
