apricot and Macadamia nut oil salad dressing
Ingredients
caprese salad
- 2 large ripe tomatoes of choice
- 4 bocconcini balls
- 1 tbls pesto
- 2 tsp pine nuts
Salad dressing
- 1 tbls homemade apricot jam
- 2 tbls macadamia nut oil or other nut oil of choice
- 3-4 tbls raspberry vinegar
- Squeeze lemon juice
Instructions
Prepare salad
- Slice tomatoes into 5-6 slices each and lay them on 2 side plates
- Slice the bocconcini balls to share evenly on top of each slice of tomato.
- Add the pesto on top of the cheese
Salad dressing
- Place all the ingredients in a small jug and whisk together. Add salt and pepper to taste. Test to make sure the balance of sweet to sour to oil ratio works. I’m a super taster and this is a good balance for me. Brian is not, so he only really gets the flavour when it’s mixed with the tomatoes. Trust me, it’s good, Brian licked his plate.
- Drizzle dressing over tomato salad and serve at room temperature.
- Sprinkle with pine nuts to finish.
