    This Little gem lettuce with anchovies recipe is so easy that I shouldn't even call it a recipe, if you look a the recipe I posted just before this one, it's brilliant to serve as a side dish or as a tapas dish, try them with Chorizo and hummus pita pockets so that you have my special ingredient below ready made.

    You can increase the number of lettuces and tins of anchovies as much as you want, making it fabulous for a party or when you have lots of people round and want to make something easy.

    Instructions
     

    • Distribute the clean lettuce leaves on a pretty (or practical) plate, place one or two anchovies on top of each one, drizzle with a bit of the oil left in the tin and then drizzle with the juices left in the frying pan after cooking the chorizo.
    • Tip: you can also mix the oil from the tin of anchovies with a scant ¼ teaspoon of paprika and ignore the chorizo part
