Warm Fig and Mozzarella
by Little Bighorn
Bread type: Rolls are best
Ingredients: 1 ball of buffalo mozzarella, 3 ripe figs, 12 leaves of basil, 4 tsp of thick pesto (a little less if very oily), salt, pepper
Time to make (approx): 10 minutes
Preheat the oven to 220°C.
Slice the mozzarella. Wash and quarter the figs. Rinse and pat dry the basil leaves. Spread the top half of each roll with a teaspoon of pesto. On the bottom half, lay a fourth of the mozzarella. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add three fig quarters and three basil leaves. Put the tops back on.
Transfer the sandwiches into a baking dish, and put it into the oven for about ten minutes, until they are heated through and the bread starts to get crispy. Let rest on the counter for a couple of minutes, and serve.
