Here's an easy canapé idea for any occasion. Pairing pesto with succulent balsamic cherry tomatoes creates a tantalizing mix of Mediterranean flavors.

Balsamic Tomato and Pesto Canapés

Makes 50

Total time:  50 minutes

Ingredients

9 oz of puff pastry, chilled

50 cherry tomatoes

1 dash of balsamic vinegar

4 oz of olive oil

1 oz of basil

3 oz of cashew nuts, salted

1 garlic clove

black pepper

1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan (if you like)

Preparation

Tomatoes

Remove the pastry from the refrigerator and allow to come up to room temperature before using.

Preheat the oven to 400°, and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

Heat a frying pan and add the cherry tomatoes, do not use any oil. When the tomatoes start to crack, add a good shot of balsamic vinegar to the pan. This will seep into the cracks and caramelize slightly in the heat of the pan.

Remove the tomatoes from the pan and set aside until you need them.

Pesto

Process all the ingredients in a food processor or bash the basil, garlic and nuts in a pestle and mortar, before adding the oil and seasoning.

Pastry

Roll out half of the pastry and cut out little circles using a shot glass or egg cup, something just a little bigger than the cherry tomatoes.

Place the puff pastry circles on one of the baking trays and top each with a little dollop of pesto and a cherry tomato. Bake in the oven for approximately 15 minutes until the pastry has risen and is golden.

Serve warm and while your guests are enjoying the first batch, put the second into the oven. Enjoy!
