This is a dainty tea sandwich that is just delicious. Instructions are so that you will get two rounds out of one piece of bread, but if you can't, use a larger cookie cutter, but you will need more bread to make eight little sandwiches. These little ones are not open-faced but have a cover on them. Ingredients:
8 slices white bread (cut into 16 round shapes) |
2 tablespoons soft butter |
2 tablespoons mayonnaise |
8 small tomatoes, slices (to fit bread rounds) |
8 slices provolone cheese |
16 fresh basil leaves |
salt and pepper |
olive oil |
Directions:
1. Cut 16 small rounds of bread (to make 8 sandwiches) with a round cookie cutter-should be able to get two out of each piece of bread, otherwise, use a larger cutter and more bread.
2. Spread one of the rounds with a little butter and then a little mayonnaise.
3. Top each with a slice of tomato, cheese round, and a couple of basil leaves (each should fit the bread round).
4. Lightly salt and pepper each one and put a couple of drops of olive oil on top.
5. Place other bread round on top.
6. Refrigerate till ready for the tea.
