2 tbs chopped chives
2 fillets anchovy fillets
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 clove garlic
1 tbsp sherry vinegar
1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

Place all ingredients for herby sauce in a blender and whiz until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning and acidity to your liking.
Chop tomatoes into different sized chunks and place in a mixing bowl with olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper. Mix and let those wonderful flavours develop.
Heat a frypan with a glug of olive oil. Tear up the bread into chunks and fry for a couple minutes each side until golden.
Add a little more oil and drop basil leaves into the hot oil for around 5 seconds until they crispen up and go translucent. They may spatter at you as the water content dries out so beware!
Assemble on a large platter starting with the sauce and topping with tomatoes, croutons, basil and goats cheese. Spoon over extra juices and serve.
