Roast tomato, crushed potato and pesto salad
Sometimes simple is best. This combination is certainly that - crispy crushed potatoes (always always good). juicy bursting oozy tomatoes, with fresh and vibrant pesto sauce. But its the little extra toppings which really enhance this simple warm salad - olives, lots of fresh herbs; dill and basil, extra virgin olive oil and a sprinkle of toasted seeds for crunch. This makes a wonderful summer or autumnal dish - especially when eaten outside with a glass of wine - oh yes! I also love to char some bread, top with the pesto and then squish on any leftover tomatoes and olives as you can see below. I hope you enjoy, much love, Niki xxx
