simple and clever recipe

Drain the mozzarella and slice it. Crush the garlic clove, chop the basil leaves, and chop the chili pepper. If you’re using really hot chili oil, you can skip this. Blend all ingredients until a paste forms. Don’t be too sparing with salt and seasoning; the paste needs to have a good kick. Arrange the mozzarella slices and spread the paste on top. Garnish with some basil, if desired.
