Ingredients

2 balls (8 oz each) burrata
1 1/2 lb cherry tomatoes, mixed colors
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1 handful basil leaves
flaky sea salt
6 slices sourdough, grilled, to serve

Method

Take the burrata out of the fridge 30 minutes ahead so it isn't cold in the middle.
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tomatoes in one layer and leave them until they blister and a few burst, 5 to 6 minutes, shaking the pan now and then.
Add the garlic and pepper flakes for the last minute, then take off the heat and season with salt.
Set the burrata on a platter, spoon the warm tomatoes and their oil around and over it, and tear the basil on top. Finish with flaky salt and serve with the grilled bread.
