Bagna Caôda, a Hot Anchovy Dipping sauce is a classic of the Piedmont region of France. It is normally served in winter (except when it is used as an accompaniment to boiled asparagus spears).

Ingredients:

2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
10 finest anchovy fillets
30g good olive oil

Method:

Fry the garlic in the olive oil, but do not let it colour (use a low heat) then add the anchovies and stir. Cook slowly, stirring constantly, until the fish have dissolved and formed a paste.

Place in a warm bowl and immediately bring to the table.
