Red Rice Salad | Recipe

A beautifully wholesome dish with a colourful twist – we use red rice for extra vibrancy. This salad is filling yet refreshing and could easily become a satisfying main by adding some extra leafy greens. Serve warm or cooled.

Giant Couscous Salad with Saffron-Roasted Tomatoes & Beetroot | Recipe

This salad is deliciously rich and generous, with earthy, punchy flavours. I serve it with Greek yoghurt and harissa on the side, or pair it with the Labneh, Dukkah, Salted Cucumber and Radishes, and perhaps a couple of dips.

Courgette, Chickpea & Feta Salad | Recipe

This salad is delicious warm as a light dinner, or at room temperature when on a picnic. The beauty of it is that the flavours get better the longer it sits. I like to eat it with some peppery wild rocket leaves, served on the side (keeping it separate stops the leaves wilting on the way to the picnic).

French Lentils, Beetroot and Goat’s Cheese Salad | Recipe

Hearty and sustaining — but not so much that you need a lie-down after eating it. This also keeps well in the fridge for a couple of days. If you can find golden beetroot, they look especially appealing in this salad (shredded raw carrot or pumpkin will look great too).
