Something I make every spring with fresh new salad leaves. Any green leaves you might have or can buy or if you are feeling a little adventurous, you can add some dandelion or ground elder leaves to the mix - as long as you are certain you are able to identify the right plant!

Preparation

When picking weeds:

  • make sure you know what you are picking
  • don't pick weeds from roadsides (car fumes and soot)
  • best not to pick weeds growing directly next to foot paths (dog pee)
  • young plants are best

Wash the leaves and chop finely. Wash and chop the radishes.

Add some balsamic vinegar and extra virgin olive oil to taste.

I had it with Fish 4 Ever peppered mackerel on top, but you can also have it with, say, basil tofu as a vegetarian option.

Delicious with crusty bread and a glass of homemade gooseberry wine or raspberry beer!
