Tomato & Buratta

There is nothing that says summer quite like a perfectly ripe tomato grown at home. We have grown many heirloom varieties in a stunning array of colours and tastes - sweet, striped, black, green, acidic.

A particular favourite is bull's heart. A beautiful variety, they are juicy and meaty and rich with flavour.

Ingredients

4 burrata

2 large bull's heart tomatoes

Juice of 1 lemon

10 sprigs of basil

Best olive oil

Salt and fresh pepper

Serves 4

Method

1. Chop the tomatoes into large chunks and put them into a bowl. Add in the lemon, a good drizzle of olive oil, and be generous and season it well with salt and pepper. Tomatoes love salt. Allow everything to macerate for 5 minutes.

2. Tear open the burrata and put them on a large serving plate. Gently season and then tumble over the tomatoes and torn basil and serve.
