Ingredients

  • 250g nettles, leaves picked and washed
  • 25g capers
  • 1 gherkin (around 20g in size)
  • ½tsp chardonnay vinegar
  • ½tsp salt
  • good pinch of black pepper
  • 100–200ml extra virgin olive oil

Method

Place all the ingredients, but only 50ml of the oil, into a blender and pulse until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more oil and a splash of water and check for seasoning. Make at the last minute, as it may turn a khaki colour if left for too long. Serve with pan-fried sea bass.
