Nothing sings authentic Italian more than bruschetta. The basic ingredients of bruschetta are a timeless tradition. However, today the ways to prepare it and variations in circulation are truly endless. We replaced the crusty bread with the flaky mini potato cake as an easy and convenient alternative to the traditional bruschetta recipe.
Ingredients
TOMATO BRUSCHETTA
Mini potato cakes
1/4 small red onion, finely chopped
4 medium tomatoes (about 250g), coarsely chopped and drained
1-2 cloves of crushed garlic
3-4 leaves of fresh basil, finely diced
15ml balsamic vinegar
20-30ml extra virgin olive oil
MUSHROOM BRUSCHETTA
Replace tomato with 250g of diced sauteed mushrooms
Instructions
STEP 1
In a large bowl, mix the onions, (tomatoes) or (mushrooms), garlic and basil, taking care not to mash or break up the tomatoes too much. Add the balsamic vinegar and extra virgin olive oil. Add salt and pepper to taste. Mix again. Cover and chill for at least an hour. This will allow the flavours to soak and blend together.
STEP 2
Air fry Mini Potato Cakes for 10-12 mins at 200°C until golden brown on both sides. Serve the mixture on the warm mini potato cakes. If you prefer the mixture at room temperature, remove from the fridge half an hour before serving.
