Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Put the peppers, salad tomatoes and onions on a baking tray. Toss with 1 tbsp oil, then roast for 15-20 mins until the peppers are warm and the tomatoes and onions have softened.
  2. Put the bread cubes on another baking tray and spread out evenly. Toast above the tomatoes and peppers for the last 5 mins of cooking until slightly crisp and golden.
  3. Whisk the remaining olive oil, the oregano, lemon juice, garlic and some seasoning in a large serving bowl. Tip the roasted veg into the serving bowl, scraping in any juices from the tray. Toss well to coat in the dressing.
  4. Fold the toasted bread, olives, radishes, cherry tomatoes, sardines and basil into the bowl and give everything another stir just before serving.
