two weeks pass...

arugula is my love forever.

arugula is good but i never buy it (it's in those organic mixed salad containers though, so i guess i do buy it when i buy those, which is sometimes/on sale)

lately i am into cucumbers, red cabbage, grated beets and carrots, chopped celery, green pepper, parsley

five years pass...

My personal recipe for a great summer salad:

Mix together in bowl, not on plate

1. salad leaves: fresh spinach, lamb's lettuce, watercress with stalks cut off
2. melt a table-spoon of lurpak butter into the salad leaves
3. add a squeeze of lime juice
4. grate plenty of extra mature cheddar on top
5. layer on thin slices of sweet emerald green tomatoes
6. plus sugar-drop tomatoes, these cut into 4, length & crossways
7. drizzle on some Harissa dressing (best not to overdo it,
I prefer Sainsburys taste the difference, but if you like it really hot: use Belazu Rose Harissa)
8. mix in a little extra virgin olive oil
9. and some sainsburys tomato puree with hint of garlic
10. and a scoop of pequillo pepper dip
11. and an smaller scoop of beetroot tzatziki
12. then add one packet of Marks & Spencers classic beef jerky
(this is the soft kind anyway, but to prevent any excess chewiness, should be cut into small pieces first)
13. cut up a few sugarsnap peas and toss 'em in too
14. sprinkle some chilli flakes, and grind plenty of salt & pepper, over everything.
15. toss together
