Sandwich

Ingredients
500 g Yellow and red cherry tomatoes
2 Garlic cloves
2 balls Mozzarella
4 slice(s) Wheat sourdough bread
1/2 packet Rocket, approx. 80-100 g (washed)
Salt
Olive oil
Chili flakes
  • Preheat the oven to the highest convection broil setting.
  • Spread the tomatoes on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Rub with grated garlic, season generously with salt, and drizzle with 2 to 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Place directly under the broiler for 20 to 25 minutes, until the tomatoes burst and the skin is nicely singed. Let cool slightly.
  • Slice the mozzarella thickly and layer it generously over two slices of bread. Spoon the roasted tomatoes on top and season with red pepper flakes to taste.
  • Toss the arugula in the tomato pan juices, then pile it onto the toast.
  • Top with the remaining slices of bread and grill in a panini press or sandwich maker for about 5 to 7 minutes, until crisp and golden.
  • Slice in half and serve immediately.
