Ingredients: 2 pandesal rolls (or brioche dinner rolls); 1 ball burrata (4–5 oz), room temperature; 2 cups cherry tomatoes; 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced; 1 small red chili, minced (optional); ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil; 1 teaspoon fine sea salt, divided; ¼ teaspoon black pepper; 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice; Handful of fresh basil leaves; Fleur de sel for finishing

Filipino pandesal rolls sliced, toasted until shattering, then topped with cloud-like burrata, a squeeze of warm garlic-chili oil, and blistered cherry tomatoes that collapse into sweet-tart bursts. A play on bruschetta with tropical undertones—elegant enough for company, humble enough for a weekday.
