Crostini with strawberry and tomato jam

topcook.tomathouse.com

Ingredients:

    Jam

  • 4 cups diced beef heart tomatoes (2-3 pcs.)
  • 1.5 cups chopped strawberries
  • 1 cup of sugar
  • 1/8 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon coarse salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

    Crostini

  • 1 baguette
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 170 g crumbled feta
  • 40 small mint leaves, for garnish (optional)

Preparation:

  1. Jam:

    Place the diced tomatoes in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat and add the strawberries, sugar, cinnamon, salt, and lemon juice. Stir. Bring to a simmer and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the jam thickens, 40-45 minutes. Set aside and let cool completely.
  2. Preheat oven to grill mode.
  3. Crostini:

    Slice the baguette into 0.5 cm thick slices. Brush both sides of each slice with olive oil. Place the bread on a baking sheet, sprinkle with salt, and broil until golden brown, 5-6 minutes. Top each crostini with a little jam and some feta. Garnish with a mint leaf or two, if using. Store any remaining jam in a tightly sealed jar in the refrigerator for up to a week.
