Broccoli, Edamame And Green Pea Salad

Serves 4-6

This salad is great as an accompaniment to a BBQ, fish, or with roasted meats.

 Ingredients:

• 2 heads broccoli
• 1 cup frozen green peas
• 1 cup frozen and shelled edamame
• 1 shallot
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 50ml white wine vinegar
• 50ml olive oil
• 25ml water
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1 bunch fresh mint

Method:

1. Measure out the peas and edamame and place in a colander. Rinse under cold water until thawed and set aside to drain.
2. Cut the broccoli into small florets and blanch in boiling water until tender. Remove from water and place in a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
3. Once cooled, add to a large bowl with the peas and edamame.
4. For the dressing, finely dice the shallot and add Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, olive oil, water and sesame oil. Mix thoroughly and season with salt and pepper.
5. To serve, arrange the salad on a serving plate or bowl and drizzle with the dressing. Finish with a little fresh mint over the top.
