Notes
Budget tip: Use 75g red grape tomatoes instead of golden and save around $1.50 in total.
Serve with: Grilled veal steak, grilled white firm fish, or as a starter.
Extra-virgin olive oil is made from the first pressing of the olives, giving it an intense, full flavour. It’s perfect for salad dressings.
