Asparagus, strawberry and feta salad

Ingredients:

Serves 2

  • 50 g green asparagus
  • 150 g fresh strawberries
  • 100 g feta cheese (preferably light or reduced sodium)
  • 1 handful of rocket or baby spinach
  • 1 tbsp rapeseed oil or olive oil
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1 tsp light balsamic vinegar
  • Freshly ground pepper
  • Optional: A few toasted walnuts or pine nuts

Method

1. Prep the asparagus

Rinse the asparagus and trim off the woody ends.

Cut into pieces around 4 cm long.

2. Fry the asparagus

Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.

Add the asparagus and fry for 5–7 minutes, until golden but still a little firm.

Season with freshly ground pepper and set aside to cool slightly.

3. Prep the strawberries and feta

Wash the strawberries, remove the stems, and slice into halves or quarters.

Crumble the feta using your hands or a fork.

4. Make the dressing

In a small bowl, mix the honey and balsamic vinegar.

Add a pinch of pepper and a few drops of olive oil, if you like.

The dressing should taste sweet and tangy.

5. Assemble the salad

Divide the rocket between two plates or bowls. 

Top with the warm asparagus, strawberries and crumbled feta. 

Drizzle over the dressing, then scatter on a few walnuts or pine nuts if you’d like some crunch.

Tips

This salad is delicious warm, but it also makes a great lunchbox option. Try it as a light main, or serve it on the side with grilled chicken or fish.
