    We add extra tomatoes, basil, cheese, and wine plus we add some frozen organic sweet corn. A family favorite.

    I didn't totally follow the episode, I used fresh heirloom tomatoes instead of sundried, and I also added kalamata olives, and capers. It turned out awesome! Super impressed with myself, it tasted like a dish you'd buy at a restaurant! Definitely recommend!
