Mini Mozzarella in Cocktail Tomato with Pesto

The perfect mini mozzarella in cocktail tomato with pesto recipe with a picture and simple step-by-step instructions.

  • 25 piece Cocktail tomatoes
  • 25 piece Mozzarella minis
  • 500 g Arugula
  • 50 g Pine nuts fresh
  • 150 g Parmesame cheese in one piece
  • Olive oil
  • Sea salt from the mill
  • Pepper from the grinder
  • Garlic fresh

Rocket pesto

  1. Wash and dry the rocket thoroughly. I only roast the pine nuts very briefly so that they are light brown. Finely grate the Parmesan and chop the garlic (amount to taste), I’ll use 4 cloves. Put the rocket in a high bowl and add a large sip of olive oil, the pine nuts and the Parmesan. Now puree everything finely with the magic wand or in a blender with a chopping knife. Add olive oil over and over again depending on the suppleness. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Now fill everything in a glass that has been boiled with hot water and add a little olive oil to finish. The pesto will keep in the fridge for 4-6 weeks.

Prepare tomatoes

  1. Wash the cocktail tomatoes and cut off the top lid and cut very little from below for a better stand. Hollow out the tomato and let it drip off briefly on a kitchen towel. Drain the mozzarella and drain in the sieve.

  1. Now you put a little pesto in each tomato and then a mini mozzarella as a topping, a generous dollop of pesto on top. When I prepared the tomatoes for the second time, I had put the little hat with the green stem on it, and it looked even prettier than in the picture.
  1. Make sure that when you snack on the pesto, you don’t put the spoon into the glass that was already in your mouth … so the pesto will last longer.
