Author Notes
This recipe is all about quality of ingredients so make sure you opt for the best and most ripe versions of everything listed, it will honestly make all the difference. Recipes don’t get simpler than this one so as soon as the suns out and you feel like pretending you’re somewhere Mediterranean get cooking this. It’s perfect just as it is or as an accompaniment to a large serving of pasta. —Anna Barnett
