FRESH MOZZARELLA AND TOMATO PANINI


Ingredients:
Sesame seeds buns – 2 nos
Fresh mozzarella cheese – 7-8 slices
Tomato – 2-3, sliced
Baby spinach – 12-15 leaves
Crushed red pepper – 1 tsp
Dry basil – 1tsp
Crushed black pepper – ½ tsp
Salt
Extra virgin olive oil


Cooking Procedure:
Brush the outer sides of the buns with olive oil and place them on a sheet of aluminium foil. I use the sheet for easy cleanup.

On the bottom slice of the bun, place the tomato slices. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Then place the baby spinach over the tomatoes. Sprinkle with crushed red pepper.

Then top it with fresh mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle with some basil and salt.

Place the top slice. Place the buns on the Panini press and grill for 4-5 mind until the cheese melts.

Serve hot. I did not have fresh basil, so I used dry basil. You can use fresh basil.
