This summer one lucky winner can dine al fresco courtesy of Harden’s and Carluccio’s with a delicious picnic hamper. The prize serves two and contains generous portions of Italian dishes, made fresh on the day and presented in a smart and reusable cool-bag.

The hamper contains a three-course meal which includes a selection of mixed olives; homemade zesty lemon and thyme focaccia; and savoury tarts with spinach, ricotta and pine nuts, followed by corn-fed chicken supreme with parsley and pancetta served with a potato, olive and saffron salad on the side. For further indulgence, enjoy a Ferreto pasta salad with oven-roasted vegetables and a pesto dressing along with a fresh and zingy green bean, cannellini, farro and rocket salad. Individual strawberry tarts and Italian biscuits from Piedmonte will end the perfect picnic.

A vegetarian option offers many of the dishes from the classic hamper, as well as tasty beefsteak tomatoes stuffed with farro, lemon and spring onion, served with a saffron potato and olive salad.
