    I have made this before but I changed the red wine vinegar to balsmic and used fresh rosemary from my garden and did leave it for about 1-2 hours in the fridge. it was really lovely and I severed it with crushed roasted new potatoes. Went down really well with my new partner and we are still together 3 years on.

    this went down very well at todays bbq. everyone could taste the difference between this and the prepacked garbage you can by. for an extra few mins prep, its well worth it.
