The Best Dressing!

Although at first I was rather dismissive of Jamie's 15 Minute Meals concept, I must admit I have found rather a few tasty morsles lurking within it's pages. This dressing has become my new favourite, and I keep coming up with excuses to make it again and again.Yes, I know it's winter and most of the time the last thing you want is a salad, but the vibrant colour of this punchy dressing will enliven any murky February lunch time.

You will need...
1/2 Bunch of Fresh Basil
1 tsp. of English Mustard
4 Anchovy Fillets
1 tbsp. Red Wine Vinegar
1 Clove Garlic (crushed)
40g Grated Parmesan (or similar)
1 Lemon
4 tbsp. Natural Yoghurt


It couldn't be more simple...

1. Rip the basil into a food processor.
2. Next add the mustard, anchovies, garlic, red wine vinegar, lemon and parmesan.
3. Blitz until you've made a paste.
4. Pour out into a nice bowl to serve.
5. Stir in the yogurt.


This dressing goes best on any salad 'a la Jamie' as it has become known in our house. Basically take all your favourite salad ingredients and pop them through the chopper on your food processor and there you have it. Each mouthful will hold a fresh hit from each of your chosen ingredients.
