Main Ingredients Cherry Tomatoes & Buffalo Mozzarella Cheese
Course Appetizer
Level Of Making Easy

Ingredients

Cherry Tomatoes 15 (cut into slanting halves – then hollow both the sides and make one side upside done to make the heart shape)
Fresh Buffalo Mozzarella Cheese 1/2 cup (chopped)
Habanero Chilli/Green Chilli 1 teaspoon (finely chopped)
Mint Leaves 1 tablespoon (finely chopped)
Red Chilli Flakes 1/2 teaspoon (for seasoning)
Salt to taste
Dried Oregano 1 teaspoon (half to add in the stuffing mix and half for seasoning)

Method

Step 1
To make the buffalo mozzarella mix: Take a bowl and combine mozzarella cheese, mint leaves, dried oregano, generous amount of salt and habanero chilli/green chilli. Mix all these ingredients.

Step 2
To stuff the cherry tomato hearts: Take little amounts of the mix and fill in both the sides of the hollowed cherry tomatoes. Then stick the stuffed tomato sides with each other in the form of a heart and insert a toothpick to keep it intact. Repeat the same step for the remaining cherry tomatoes and stack on a serving plate. Season with dried oregano and chilli flakes and serve. (You can also season with your favourite Salad/Italian Seasoning)

Voila! 🙂 Relish these pretty hearts with your loved one.
