HOT- SMOKED SALMON SALAD WITH GARLIC SHOOTS AND A CHILLI LEMON DRESSING
13 June 2008

Serves 8

Ingredients:
500g new potatoes, halved
2 x 100g packs Garlic Shoots
250g bag mixed salad, which includes watercress or rocket
bunch each of parsley and mint, leaves picked and roughly chopped
140g radishes, thinly sliced
8 x hot-smoked salmon steaks, skin removed

For the dressing:
3 tbsp lemon juice
125ml olive oil
1 tsp wholegrain mustard
2 red chillies, de-seeded and finely chopped

Whisk together all the dressing ingredients in a bowl, season to taste.
Boil the potatoes in salted water for 10 minutes until tender, adding the garlic shoots for the final 2 minutes of cooking. Drain and place in a large mixing bowl, pour on half the dressing and gently mix to coat the potatoes. Leave to cool. When cool add the salad leaves, herbs and radishes, mix carefully and turn out on to a large serving platter. Break the hot-smoked salmon into large chunks and scatter over the salad. Finish by pouring the remaining dressing over the top.
