Instructions

1. Remove the stem and the small white core from each tomato, then slice each tomato about 1 cm thick.
2. Slice the buffalo mozzarella to a similar thickness.
3. On the serving plate, lay a tomato slice flat. Sprinkle with dried oregano if using, a pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper.
4. Place a basil leaf on the left side of the tomato, half on and half hanging off the edge.
5. Overlap a mozzarella slice on the right side of the tomato, covering only half of it.
6. Repeat, working around the rim of the plate and then inward, and finish the middle layers with tomato and basil first, then mozzarella.
7. Drizzle generously with extra virgin olive oil.
