Method
- If you’re making your own croutons, slice up your bread into crouton-size pieces and bake at 180ºC with a drizzle of olive oil for 15 minutes.
- Slice your onion into thin strips and cook over medium heat with olive oil for around 10 minutes until soft and caramelized.
- Then add in your garlic and tomatoes and cook for a further 5 to 10 minutes.
- While this cooks, boil your pasta according to the pack instructions and leave to cool.
- Chop up the peppers, feta, olives, salami, croutons and cucumber and add to a large bowl.
- Add in the cooked tomato mixture and pasta.
- Toss well with a drizzle of olive oil, lemon juice, torn basil and a good amount of salt and pepper.
