30 minutes
Marinated mozzarella cheese with avocado is an exquisite dish where the freshness of avocado harmoniously blends with the delicate texture of mozzarella. This recipe is inspired by Mediterranean cuisine, where the simplicity of ingredients reveals depth of flavor. Sweet pepper and basil add brightness and aroma, while a spicy marinade of garlic, mustard, vinegar, and olive oil gives the dish a rich flavor nuance. After two hours of chilling, all flavors meld together to create a perfect gastronomic combination. This salad pairs wonderfully with crispy ciabatta and makes a great addition to a light summer dinner or an elegant appetizer for a festive table.
