CHERRY TOMATO SALAD WITH KALAMATA OLIVES

Steps:

• Rinse the tomatoes well with cold water. I normally cut them in half, and also cut off any stems or blemishes, then add them to a bowl. Roughly chop the olives and add to the tomatoes.
• Squish the mixture with your fingers so the tomatoes give off some juice and everything is nicely mixed.
• Drizzle in a very little bit of the vinegar and olive oil.
• Stash this in the fridge for a while if you have time, then top with some shredded basil just before eating.
• Another great way to serve this is to toast some slices of cheese bread (try my recipe #138924), rub both sides with a cut garlic clove, then mound the tomato mixture on top. Lay very thin slices of the fresh mozarella on top, and broil for a minute or two. Garnish with shredded basil and freshly ground black pepper.
