Staying in?  “Every day should be like it’s Valentine’s day.”  Enjoy a night in with your loved one.  Cosy, candle-lit dinner for two? If one thing’s destined to dampen any ardour, it’s slaving over a hot stove all night with a pile of washing up to finish the meal.

That’s where Basco comes to the rescue!

This year we’re offering a  dine-in special; a romantic tapas for two with either a bottle of fruity Rioja or a sparkly Cava. This comes in a stylish red presentation box with everything you need to put away the pinny and have a romantic meal, minimum of fuss, so you can focus on that special someone. Follow our simple instruction to prepare wonderful tapas meal and pudding and enjoy our fool proof way to make your Valentine’s evening something memorable. Each Date Night Box contains the following:

• A bag of Padron Peppers – put a smudge of olive oil into a hot pan and then pop these sweet little peppers into the pan until they start to blister then sprinkle generously with sea-salt.

• Serrano Ham – Bring up to room temperature an hour before and arrange decorously on a plate. This sweet, soft ham has been cured for 12 months and comes from free-range pork.

• Venison and Pedro Ximenez pate – this pate is flavoured with sweet Spanish sherry to make a rich and delicious accompaniment with toasted bread.

• Chorizo sausage with red wine and honey – check out our simple, fool-proof recipe here to make gorgeously tasty and flavourful tapa.

• Arroyabe bonito tuna – delicious just forked into a salad of fresh tomatoes, red onion and pomegranate seeds.

• La Chinata Manzanilla Olives, crunchy green olives flavoured with garlic and rosemary.

• 1880 Turron de Jinona – crumbled over ice cream.

• Cava Can Xa Brut Aged for 9 months this fizz sings with lemon, mandarin and yeast. Clean, crisp, fruity and refreshing, this wine is the perfect accompaniment to any romantic meal.
