Italian Lemon Sauce

Italian lemon sauce
 For Jean-Michel and Hektor 😉

 Ingredients:

 8 shallots
 500 g cherry tomatoes
 1 lemon
 A handful of large Italian salted capers
 2 tablespoons of pitted olives confit with Ligurian oil
 A glass of dry white wine
 Olive oil
 Salt pepper
Except for vegans, a few drops of “colatura di alici” or Worcester sauce

Chop the shallots and sauté them in a pot or wok with olive oil

 Squeeze the lemon, reserve the juice, cut the half lemons in 4 and remove the inner skins.
 Chop the lemon peel into small pieces.  Add them to the shallots.  Continue to fry the mixture.
 Add cherry tomatoes and tomato stems (they’ll add flavour to the dish)
 Keep frying for 3 minutes
 Add the olives, the lemon juice and the glass of wine
 Cover and cook over medium heat 10 minutes
 Add the capers without the stems
If you’re not vegan, it’s time to add a few drops of “colatura di alici” or Worcester sauce

Continue cooking for 5 minutes
 Salt, pepper to taste, remove the stems of the tomatoes

 Serve with fusilli, tagliatelle or penne

 Enjoy your meal !
