  • Basil leaves

Method

Serving ideas

  • Straight from the oven with crusty bread or toasted sourdough
  • Great as a BBQ side dish
  • Allow to cool and toss through mixed salad leaves. Add cooked, cooled pasta for a more substantial meal.
  • You can also leave out the anchovies for a vegetarian version of this dish, or substitute the mini bocconcini balls for crumbled feta if you prefer.
