Ingredients
- 2-3 courgettes
- 2 lemons, zest and juice
- 200g frozen peas
- 2 x pouches Merchant Gourmet Italian-Style Grains
- 400g can white beans, drained and rinsed
- Small bunch each parsley and dill
- 75g roasted hazelnuts, roughly chopped
- 60g capers
- 1 tsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp mustard
- 3 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- First, use a vegetable peeler to peel the courgettes into long ribbons directly into a large salad bowl. Add the zest of the two lemons, frozen peas, grains and white beans. Roughly chop the herbs and add them to the bowl along with most of the roasted hazelnuts and capers- saving a few for the top.
- Make the dressing. Whisk the juice of 1 ½ of the lemons together with the maple syrup, mustard and olive oil. Season well, then tip over the salad. Toss, taste and season, add the remaining lemon half and extra olive oil to taste. Scatter with the remaining roasted hazelnuts and capers and serve.
