Ingredients

2 red peppers, de-seeded and quartered

4 vine-ripened tomatoes

1 tbsp olive oil

1 clove garlic, finely chopped

Anchovy fillets, drained (optional)

300g Asda Extra Special Tenderstem Broccoli

2 x 60g packs Asda Parma Ham

1 tbsp balsamic vinegar

Method

1
Pre-heat the grill. Cook the peppers, skin side up, until they blacken and blister. Put in a bowl, cover with cling film and leave for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, put the tomatoes in a bowl, cover with boiling water and leave for 1 minute. Pour off the water.
2
Peel the skin off the tomatoes and peppers. Halve the tomatoes, scoop out the seeds and discard.
3
Heat the oil in a pan and fry the garlic for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the peppers, tomatoes, anchovies (if using) and 100ml water. Cover and simmer gently for 15 minutes.
4
Pre-heat the oven to 190C/170C Fan/Gas 5. Bring a pan of water to the boil, add the broccoli and simmer for 3 minutes. Drain, rinse under cold water and drain again. Wrap up the broccoli, 2 or 3 stems and a time, in the Parma ham and put in an ovenproof fish. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes until the ham is crispy.
5
To serve, blend the vinegar and red sauce into a purée. Reheat the sauce and serve with the broccoli.
