Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 160º C.
  2. Place half the tomatoes on a baking tray and drizzle with olive oil, add the chopped thyme, season with salt and pepper and place in the oven to roast for approximately 15 minutes.
  3. Place the balsamic vinegar and olive oil in a bowl and whisk. Cut the rest of the tomatoes in halves and allow to soak in the vinegar-and-oil mixture for 20 minutes.
  4. Rinse about 50 g of the basil leaves and cut off the stems where they are joined. Separate the leaves. Dry with a paper towel and place on a plate, then microwave at medium-high heat for 30 seconds or until leaves begin to darken.
  5. Remove the tomatoes from the oven and let them cool. Also remove the tomatoes from the olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Cut the remaining tomatoes into thin circles.
  6. To plate: Arrange the burrata on a plate (either kept whole or sliced halfway if preferred). Place the different tomatoes around the burrata on the plate and sprinkle the balsamic vinegar pearls around the plate.
  7. Using a sieve, shave the dried basil onto the plate to your liking.
  8. Garnish with the remaining fresh basil and serve.
