Skinnymixers Basil Oil Thermomix

I had a beautiful dinner with a friend at a pub this week, and trying to choose a ‘healthier’ option, I opted for the lamb rump drizzled with basil oil. I thought the basil oil was a wonderful way to make such a simple meal a little bit fancier and yummier – and I knew immediately I was going to turn this in to a blog recipe for you all.

This Thermomix recipe is well timed with the beautiful fresh basil growing in my UrbiPod absolutely flourishing. You can also use other, non woody, herbs such as parsley and coriander. Drizzle this over meat, eggs, fish, bruschetta and roast vegetables to name a few.

Enjoy, Love Nik xx
