60g ‘nduja
50g Caper and Anchovy Butter, sliced
50ml Offshoot Chardonnay

Method
To make the Caper & Anchovy Butter, mix all of the ingredients together then place onto a sheet of plastic wrap, roll into a log and chill in the fridge.
Preheat oven to 180°. Place the fish, prawns, clams, ‘nduja and butter into a metal or earthenware tray about 30cm x 20cm and 10cm tall.
Add Chardonnay, cover with foil and cook in oven for 20 minutes.
Garnish with the serrano ham and herbs. Enjoy with steamed new potatoes and a mixed-leaf salad.
Serve with the Offshoot Chardonnay
This elegant style of Chardonnay allows the fruit characters to shine, with a subtle line of oak adding interest. The palate starts off creamy and clean with overtones of almond and lemon pith, with a fresh lemon/lime finish.
