- 6 medium/large strawberries
- 1 teaspoon olive oil plus extra for drizzling
- small bunch mint leaves
- 1 tablespoon balsamic glaze

Preheat the oven to 180°C/350F/gas mark 4. Cut the green tops off the strawberries and slice in half. Drizzle in 1 teaspoon of olive oil, toss to coat the strawberries then add to a lined baking tray, sprinkle with a tiny pinch of salt then roast in the oven for 10 minutes, until soft. Let cool slightly.
Add the pine nuts to a small dry frying pan under a medium heat and toast until golden brown on each side, set aside. Finely slice the peaches and mozzarella and finely chop the mint leaves.
To assemble the salad, place a little arugula/rocket on each plate then add alternate slices of peach and mozzarella on top. Top with the roasted strawberries, a sprinkle of chopped mint and pine nuts. Add a drizzle of olive oil and balsamic glaze over the salad and serve.
