First cut the mozzarella into slices, then into pieces. The size is based on that of the strawberries. Cut the basil into strips, pull the zest from the lemon.
Mix two tablespoons of lemon juice, the spices and the oil into a marinade, add the basil and lemon zest. Pour the marinade over the mozzarella and cover in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes.
Wash and dry the strawberries, cut straight on the sepal side, cut off the tip, then cut the remaining pulp in half crosswise. Place a piece of marinated mozzarella with basil and zest on each of the strawberry slices. Hold the halves together with a wooden skewer or serve on finger food spoons.
