Toasted ciabatta with anchovy and mandarin butter

1 Melt the butter, then chop the anchovies and add them to it along with the thyme.

2 Stir over a low heat for a minute or so, until the anchovies melt into the butter.

3 Add the mandarin juice and remove from the heat.

4 Cut the ciabiatta in half lengthways. Toast the bread, then smear it with the anchovy butter.

5 Cut into chunks and serve. This would be wonderful with the charcuterie on its own, as well as with the pasta.
