About the recipe
To make a really authentic, full-of-flavour salsa verde, chop up all those lovely herbs by hand.
Ingredients
1½–2 cloves of garlic
2 big handfuls of fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 bunch of fresh basil
1 handful of fresh mint
1 small handful of capers
1 small handful of gherkins, in sweet vinegar
6 quality anchovy fillets
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
8 tablespoons really good extra virgin olive oil
Top Tip
This is great served with grilled or roasted meat and fish.
Method
- Peel the garlic and pick the herb leaves, then finely chop on a large board with the capers, gherkins and anchovies.
- Place in a bowl, add the mustard and vinegar, then slowly stir in the oil until you achieve the right consistency.
- Balance the flavours with black pepper, a bit of sea salt and maybe a little more vinegar.
