The recipe for this delicious Italian bread salad is brought to you by Restaurant Rossio in Delft, The Netherlands.

The Panzanella croutons: Cut the bread in 2 cm cubes, sprinkle them with a little bit of sugar and place them in a pre-heated oven for 15-20 minutes (190 degrees)

Cut the leaves of the lettuce, the cherry tomatoes & the onion in thin rings

Add the basil leaves, do not cut them

Mix the ingredients in a bowl

Flavour with some oil and vinegar, the taste of vinegar should be really there, may taste a bit sour

Sprinkle with a bit of pepper, salt and grated Parmesan. You can use a peeler to create nice grated Parmesan

Just before serving, lightly toss the Panzanella croutons through the salad
