METHOD
Slice cherry tomatoes in half and scatter across a large serving plate.
Tear or arrange fresh basil leaves throughout the tomatoes.

TOP TIP
Basil bruises easily - always tear, never chop. Tearing preserves the oils and avoids that black-edge look on leaves. For peak freshness, add basil just before serving.
