A wonderful salad with strong flavours. I wouldn't have a salad any other way. Ingredients:
5 cups cherry tomatoes, halved |
6 slices lean bacon, cooked until crisp and crumbled |
1/3 cup finely chopped fresh basil, plus |
6 basil sprigs |
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar |
4 tablespoons olive oil |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, toss together tomatoes, bacon and chopped basil.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar and salt and pepper to taste.
3. Slowly whisk in olive oil in a steady stream, whisking until emulsified.
4. Pour dressing over tomatoes, toss lightly and garnish with basil sprigs.
