Par-baked baguettes 

What You’ll Need

Olive oil 

Salt and freshly ground pepper

Makes 4 servings

Active Time: 15 minutes  

Total Time: 15 minutes  

Step 1 

Remove the tops from the cherry tomatoes. Cut 2 cloves of garlic in half. Pick the basil, toss the stems, and tear the leaves. Drain the burrata and let it come to room temperature.

Step 2 

In a nonstick frying pan over medium heat, warm 2 tablespoons olive oil. Add the tomatoes and sauté until the tomatoes burst, sink down, and start to turn jammy, 10 minutes. Fold in the torn basil until just wilted. Season with salt.  

Step 3 

Meanwhile, slice and toast the baguettes. Rub each slice with the cut garlic halves, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt. 

Step 4 

Pour the burst tomatoes into a shallow bowl, top with the burrata, and season with salt and pepper. Serve warm, with the garlic toasts for dipping.
