If you have been following my blog, you would have read about my obsession with the Nando’s peri-peri sauces – the entire range. The first time I ate at Nando’s, I picked up a brochure at the counter which contained a few recipes using their sauces. This one is from the brochure but I tweaked it slightly though.
A very simple recipe with very few ingredients! The soft richness of the butter cuts through the sharp spiciness of the peri-peri sauce.
