  1. Slice the tomatoes thinly and arrange them overlapping on the platter

  2. Sprinkle the tomatoes with Maldon salt

  3. Add small drizzles of pesto, instead of regular basil leaves

  4. Tear the mozzarella by hand, don't cut it, and scatter it between the tomatoes

  5. Drizzle with balsamic reduction, finish with a little more Maldon salt and serve
