Description

This impressive bruschetta topped with bocconcini and asparagus spears makes an easy appetiser for dinner parties.

Method

Step 1 of 4

Slice tomatoes and place in a bowl. Season and drizzle with oil and balsamic vinegar, then set aside. Snap off and discard the bottom woody ends from each asparagus spear, then halve crossways.

Step 2 of 4

To make the lemon dressing, combine lemon juice and oil in a large bowl and season.

Step 3 of 4

Heat a chargrill pan over medium-high heat until hot. Cook asparagus, in batches, on the hot chargrill pan for 1 minute each side or until lightly charred. Transfer cooked asparagus to the dressing in the bowl. Repeat with remaining asparagus. Cook bread slices on the chargrill pan, in batches, for 1 minute each side until toasted. Rub lightly with garlic.

Step 4 of 4

Place bread on a serving board. Arrange bocconcini onto each slice of bread, spoon over some of the tomato mixture, and top with a few asparagus spears. Sprinkle with basil leaves and parmesan. Serve.
