This salad is unusual but it’s always a firm favourite. It’s refreshing and it has a lovely sharp flavour enhanced by the fresh mint and Dijon mustard – and best of all, you can throw it together in just a few minutes, with ingredients most of us have knocking about at home.

Instructions

Step 1

Turn the tomatoes on their side and cut them into slices about 5cm thick. Arrange in overlapping, concentric circles on a plate.

Step 2

Trim and clean the spring onions. Cut in half lengthways and then slice on the diagonal. Scatter over the tomatoes.

Step 3

Whisk all the dressing ingredients together in a jug and drizzle over the salad.

Step 4

Serve immediately with crusty white bread.
