2 Fried Manchego and Sweet Tomato

Oct 09

The simplest 4 ingredients that have the biggest flavor together. By cooking the grape tomatoes in olive oil for one min brings out all the sweetness and cuts any acid flavor. Manchego cheese already a favorite goes to a new level when its also fried in olive oil for 10 seconds just enough to warm the inside and give the outside a nice soft texture. Finished with a tiny strip of basil it is the perfect bite.

Will have to try this. I love when little tomato's are slightly cooked and burst in your mouth when you bite into them:)
