The Tomato Stall's Pull Apart Bread with Oak Smoked Isle of Wight Tomatoes and Brie
1 large loaf of bread 250g Brie or Camembert, cut into thin slices and then cut again into small strips 230g, 1 jar, Isle of Wight Oak Smoked Tomatoes 1 tsp Thyme leaves 1-2 Garlic cloves, crushed
What to do:
Preheat the oven to 180°
Cut thick slices, in a criss-cross pattern, a little more than halfway into the bread. Do not cut all the way through the bread.
Drain the oil out of the tomatoes, place in a separate bowl and set aside. Remove the oak smoked tomatoes from the jar and place in a small food processor (or on board if you are chopping them up by hand). Process, or chop until you get a thick paste.
Add the thyme leaves and crushed garlic to the tomatoes and add the reserved oil from the jar of tomatoes. Give this a good stir to combine
Using a knife, spread the tomato paste into alternate cracks of the bread. Then push the slices of cheese into the remaining cuts of the bread.
Brush the top of the bread with any remaining oil that might be left over.
Bake for about 25 minutes or until the cheese has become melted and the crust is golden.
The Tomato Stall's Mixed Isle of Wight tomatoes, burrata and asparagus salad
500g mixed Isle of Wight tomatoes Large bunch of fresh basil, leaves picked 1 lemon, juice and zest 5 tbsp olive oil Salt and pepper 280g asparagus 20g pine nuts 200g burrata
What to do:
Slice all the tomatoes and place on a sharing plate.
Half fill a wide shallow pan and place on a medium heat to bring to the boil.
Place the basil, lemon juice and zest, olive oil and seasoning into a food processor and blitz until well combined and nearly smooth.
Once the water is boiling, blanch the asparagus in the pan for 3-4 minutes until just cooked through. Immediately place in a bowl of iced water to make sure they keep their colour.
In a small pan toast the pine nuts, making sure you keep an eye on them as they burn easily.
Assemble the asparagus on top of the tomatoes, place the burrata in the middle of the plate and sprinkle over the toasted pine nuts.
Finally, drizzle over the basil oil and a final sprinkling of sea salt.
