This truly is summer on a plate – there’s a charred depth that combines with the vibrant, light notes of succulent vegetables and zingy chilli heat. If you are looking for a colourful way to serve charcuterie al fresco then look no further. Grilling courgettes and serving with toasted almonds also brings out their inherent, delicate, nutty flavour.
Method:
Preheat your BBQ grill and thinly slice your courgettes. Season with salt and pepper.
Grill until lightly charred and softened for about 5-6 mins turning occasionally and being careful with them when moving so as not to let the fall between the gaps. Whilst they are hot toss in a bowl with oregano, all the olive oil, chilli and garlic.
Plate up this seasonal salad by arranging the chargrilled courgettes, caper berries, room temperature sliced tomatoes and broad beans on a plate.
Next fold your bresaola into flowers and plate up. Finish with a scattering of toasted almonds and a generous drizzle of all the leftover warmed olive oil that’s been lightly infused with garlic, oregano and chilli. Serve with grilled focaccia or sliced ciabatta.
