Elevate traditional caprese salad with grilled asparagus and zesty rocket pesto. Ideal for summer gatherings.
Ingredients:
  • 350g mixed medley tomatoes, halved
  • 200g cherry bocconcini, halved
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 4 bunches asparagus, woody ends trimmed
  • Basil leaves, to serve
  • 125.00 ml basil leaves
  • 60g pkt Baby Rocket
  • 25g pecorino
  • 40g pine nut
  • 80ml olive oil
Instructions:
  • For the rocket pesto, combine basil, rocket, pecorino or parmesan, pine nuts, and garlic in a food processor. Pulse until finely chopped. With the processor running, slowly pour in the oil until blended. Season to taste.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the tomato, bocconcini, and onion. Stir in 2 tablespoons of rocket pesto and gently toss until everything is well combined. Season to taste.
  • Preheat a barbecue grill or chargrill on high heat. Coat the asparagus with olive oil spray and season generously. Grill, turning occasionally, for 2-3 minutes until the asparagus is tender and cooked through.
  • Place the asparagus on a serving platter, top with the tomato mixture, drizzle with the remaining rocket pesto, and garnish with basil leaves before serving.
