Prep Time 15 minutes

Cooking Time 10 minutes

Ingredients

1 red onion, finely chopped
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 T chopped ginger
2 sticks lemongrass, chopped
1 small chilli, diced and seeded
80 ml olive oil
A selection of Rosalina and baby vine tomatoes
1 packet Patagonian calamari
150 ml light white wine
1 x 400 g chickpeas, drained
1 bunch fresh coriander
10 - 15 drops fish sauce
2 limes, juiced

Method

Sweat the onion, salt, garlic, ginger, lemongrass and chilli in a little olive oil. Halve the tomatoes and set aside.

Add the calamari and white wine and boil quickly, then add the remaining olive oil.

Add the tomatoes, chickpeas and coriander stalks.

Bring to a simmer and cook for 3 to 4 minutes.

Add the coriander leaves, fish sauce and lime juice.

Serve as a warm summer appetiser with croutons.

Cook's note: Sweet with a crisp flesh, Rosalina tomatoes have a distinct fruity flavour and beautiful yellow to orange blush.
