30 g of pickled capers, 2 small tomatoes, a boiled egg.

the green part of 2 onions, salt, pepper, extra virgin olive oil “Gallo di Puglia”.

in a tureen, together with the pickled capers then, add the tomatoes and the boiled
egg cut into small pieces.
Prepare a sauce using the parsley, the greens and the green part of the onions, taking
