Do you love hasselback potatoes?
I do, the crispy outside, fluffy inside with a big sprinkle of sea salt flakes. Mmmm.
And what’s better than hasselback potatoes?–When they’re combined with charred seasonal purple spouting broccoli, fennel, creamy basil pesto and fresh sugar snaps and peas. A match made in heaven.
This gorgeous warm seasonal salad celebrates lovely seasonal produce. It’s substantial enough to eat on its own, but I love it with some fresh and chewy sourdough.
Enjoy xxx.

To char the veg
Add the broccoli and fennel to a large frying pan or griddle pan with the oil. Cook on a medium heat, turning frequently until lightly charred and cooked through. Set aside.
To make the pesto
Add all the ingredients to your food processor or high-speed blender and blitz until everything is combined to the texture you prefer. You may need to scrape the sides down a few times.
To serve

Top with dollops of the pesto, pea shoots and basil.
Drizzle with extra olive oil and a pinch of sea salt.
