Impress with this easy Christmas starter - whipped ricotta and garlic bruschetta infused with Coles balsamic roasting oil. Elevate your festive feast with Mediterranean flavors, also try smoked salmon antipasti and stuffed mushrooms.
Ingredients:
  • 2 x 250g punnets cherry tomatoes
  • 2 small garlic bulbs, tops trimmed
  • 5 fresh thyme sprigs
  • 160ml (2/3 cup) olive oil, plus 2 tbsp extra
  • 40.00 ml Italian Balsamic Vinegar of Modena
  • 300g fresh ricotta
  • 6 x 2cm-thick slices White Sourdough Vienna
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 180C/160C fan forced. Combine tomatoes, garlic, and thyme in a roasting dish. Drizzle with 125ml (1/2 cup) of oil, season with salt and pepper, and drizzle with balsamic vinegar. Roast for 50 minutes until garlic is soft and tomatoes are slightly shrivelled.
  • Smoothly blend the ricotta in a food processor. Gradually add the rest of the oil while the processor is on until well combined and velvety.
  • In a medium-high heated frying pan with extra oil, gently fry the bread slices for 1-2 minutes on each side until they turn golden brown.
  • Squeeze out the garlic from the bulbs onto the toasted bread. Spread whipped ricotta over it and add tomatoes. Drizzle with pan juices and sprinkle with basil before serving. Check out our video for making this delicious Whipped Ricotta and Garlic Bruschetta.
