About the recipe

This dish is 4 in 1. Any salad leaves will work so we recommend going out to the garden and harvesting whatever is ready to eat – you can’t get a salad fresher than that. You also have a choice of 3 dressings, or you can always try all three and store the rest to enjoy throughout the week.

200g fresh, homegrown mixed salad leaf
75g Sugar snap peas
1 apple
100g radishes
50 ml yoghurt
10 mint leaves
Clove of garlic
Juice and zest of half a lemon
25 ml maple syrup
75 ml apple juice
75 ml olive oil
25 ml apple cider vinegar
1 tsp wholegrain mustard
15g sugar
25g parsley
25g lovage
75-100ml sunflower oil
1 tsp wholegrain mustard
1 tbsp white wine vinegar

Step 1 - Salad
Take all the salad greens from the garden and wash. Tear the leaves and put in a bowl. Julienne the apple (cut it into thin, short strips) and shave the radish thinly then mix in the bowl. Serve with your choice of dressings.

Step 2 - Yoghurt & Herb Dressing
Finely chop the mint and crush half a garlic clove. Put the yoghurt into a mixing bowl. Add the mint, garlic, lemon juice, zest and maple juice and mix together. If too thick add some water. Season to taste.

Step 3 - Apple Dressing
Juice the apple. Add the apple juice, sugar and apple cider vinegar to a pot and bring to the boil over a medium heat and reduce until syrup like. Add the olive oil, mustard and watercress together and whisk until complete. Add more apple juice if it is too thick.

Step 4 - Stupidly Green Dressing
Blend the parsley, lovage and half a clove of garlic with the sunflower oil for 7 minutes until completely broken down and green in colour. Whisk in the mustard and vinegar and season to taste.
