Ingredients
- 6 large garlic cloves, peeled
- ½ tsp sea salt flakes
- 6 anchovy fillets
- 60 ml (¼ cup) extra virgin olive oil
- 60 g unsalted butter
- 1 head witlof, leaves separated
- 1 bulb baby fennel, thinly sliced into 1 cm-thick crescents
- 100 g baby cavolo nero (Tuscan kale) or rocket leaves
- toasted crusty bread
Instructions
Place the garlic and salt in a mortar and pound to a fine paste using the pestle. Add the anchovies and pound to a fine paste.
Scrape the paste into a small saucepan, add the olive oil and butter and heat over low heat for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally - you don’t want the garlic to burn or the butter to foam.
Pour the sauce into a warmed shallow bowl and serve immediately with the vegetables and bread for dipping.
