Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Jam:

    Place the diced tomatoes in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat and add the strawberries, sugar, cinnamon, salt, and lemon juice. Stir. Bring to a simmer and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the jam thickens, 40-45 minutes. Set aside and let cool completely.
  2. Preheat oven to grill mode.

  3. Crostini:

    Slice the baguette into 0.5 cm thick slices. Brush both sides of each slice with olive oil. Place the bread on a baking sheet, sprinkle with salt, and broil until golden brown, 5-6 minutes. Top each crostini with a little jam and some feta. Garnish with a mint leaf or two, if using. Store any remaining jam in a tightly sealed jar in the refrigerator for up to a week.
