Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 160º C.

2. 2

   Place half the tomatoes on a baking tray and drizzle with olive oil, add the chopped thyme, season with salt and pepper and place in the oven to roast for approximately 15 minutes.

3. 3

   Place the balsamic vinegar and olive oil in a bowl and whisk. Cut the rest of the tomatoes in halves and allow to soak in the vinegar-and-oil mixture for 20 minutes.

4. 4

   Rinse about 50 g of the basil leaves and cut off the stems where they are joined. Separate the leaves. Dry with a paper towel and place on a plate, then microwave at medium-high heat for 30 seconds or until leaves begin to darken.

5. 5

   Remove the tomatoes from the oven and let them cool. Also remove the tomatoes from the olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Cut the remaining tomatoes into thin circles.

6. 6

   To plate: Arrange the burrata on a plate (either kept whole or sliced halfway if preferred). Place the different tomatoes around the burrata on the plate and sprinkle the balsamic vinegar pearls around the plate.

7. 7

   Using a sieve, shave the dried basil onto the plate to your liking.

8. 8

   Garnish with the remaining fresh basil and serve.
