Tomato-Mozzarella Balls

Ingredients

• 1 handful chives
• 3 tbsp white balsamic vinegar
• Salt
• black pepper (freshly ground)
• a pinch sugar
• 5 tbsp olive oil
• 500 g cocktail tomatoes (red and yellow)
• 500 g mozzarella
• 0.5 honeydew melon

Instructions

1. 1.

   Wash the chives, pat dry, and cut into fine ribbons. Whisk together balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper, sugar, chives, and olive oil to make a vinaigrette.

2. 2.

   Rinse the tomatoes and pat dry; drain the mozzarella. Halve the honeydew melon, remove seeds, and use a melon baller to form small balls (aim for about 350 g of melon balls).

3. 3.

   Combine all balls in a large bowl with the vinaigrette and let rest for at least 20 minutes. Then serve in small bowls or colorful cups, garnished with toothpick sticks.
