Method
Toasted sandwiches remain a favourite. This one, with homemade rocket pesto, is a real hit – and great with cooked pasta. Drizzle olive oil over leftover pesto and store it in the fridge.
Make the pesto:
Place the rocket, capers, lemon juice, garlic, parmesan cheese and anchovies in a food processor and chop roughly until mixed through.

Add the oil and black pepper and mix further.
Pack the bread on a baking tray. Toast the one side, turn over and spread the pesto on the other side. Top with tomato slices and cheese and toast in a preheated oven until the cheese melts.
