Broad Bean Salad

Ingredients

  • 1 kg fresh, small to medium broad beans in shells
  • 100g feta or white sheep's milk cheese (this recipe is just as tempting as a vegan meal, without dairy)
  • 1 small handful finely chopped lettuce leaves
  • 1 clove garlic (crushed)
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon Stoney Creek Organic Flaxseed Oil
  • Preserved lemon (crushed) or some grated lemon zest to taste
  • Cracked black pepper to taste
  • Finely chopped parsley

 

Method

  1. Shell beans and simmer in just enough water to cover until tender (one minute).
  2. Drain and cool.
  3. When the beans are cool enough to touch, peel and discard the skins.
  4. Drizzle with oil and mix the feta through the soft green beans.
  5. Add the rest of the ingredients and toss through.
