Instructions

  1. Rub the peel of 2 oranges and tear off the zest of one orange. Peel all oranges generously with the knife so that no white peel remains on the oranges. Mix the zest with the crème fraiche until smooth. Mix 10 g basil leaves and 4 tablespoons oil with a hand blender. Then add to the cream and mix. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  2. Spread the rocket on plates. Arrange the mozzarella and orange slices alternately like a roof tile, lightly salt and spread the cream on top.
  3. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil and sprinkle with anise, basil leaves and orange zest.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
