Ingredients

  • 1 bunch basil, leaves picked & stems diced
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp red-wine vinegar
  • Sea salt & black pepper
  • 150g stale sourdough, diced
  • 600g ripe mixed tomatoes, roughly chopped
  • 1 tbsp capers, drained
  • 150g jar red peppers, sliced
  • 50g black olives, halved
  • 1 small red onion, sliced

Method


  • Preheat oven to 180ºC.
  • Place the basil stems, garlic, olive oil and red-wine vinegar in a blender and blend well. Season and set aside.
  • Place the sourdough pieces on a tray in the oven for 5 mins. If your bread is quite stale, you can skip this step.
