Family Sharing Platter

Feeling peckish?  This is a family 'help yourself' platter of foods we love.  No cooking involved, just some peeling, chopping and slicing.

Ingredients

1 saucisson sec, sliced or parma ham slices

Figs

Melon slices

Crusty bread

Cherry tomatoes

Asparagus spears, trimmed and served either cooked or raw

Olives, black and green

Hummus and Grissini

Sun dried tomatoes in oil

Snoggable garlic cloves

Carrot, cucumber and celery sticks

Extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar in small bowls for dipping.

Method

Tomatoes

12 cherry tomatoes, halved and drizzled with olive oil and some crushed garlic, salt, pepper and a pinch of sugar.  Add some thin slices of red onion too if you have some to hand.   Mix it all together in a bowl.  It tastes better at room temperature. 

Arrange the other ingredients on a large platter or tray with the Baked Camembert I posted earlier and let everyone tuck in.
