Ingredients
Salad
- ½ head iceberg lettuce, roughly chopped
- 200 g cherry tomatoes, halved
- 2 baby cucumbers, sliced into rounds
- ¼ red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 cup packet croutons
Herby Lemon Vinaigrette
- 60 ml extra virgin olive oil
- 3 tbsp fresh lemon juice (about 1 large lemon)
- 5 g Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp honey
- 1 small garlic clove, finely grated
- 2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp fresh basil, finely chopped
- salt
- pepper
Method
Make the Herby Lemon Vinaigrette
In a small bowl or jar, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, honey and grated garlic.
Whisk or shake well until emulsified.
Stir through the chopped parsley and basil. Season generously with salt and cracked black pepper. Set aside.
Build the Salad
Add the chopped iceberg lettuce to a large wide salad bowl as your base.
Arrange the cherry tomatoes, cucumber rounds and red onion over the top.
Drizzle the herby lemon vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to combine — don't overdress, you want everything lightly coated.
Scatter the croutons over the top just before serving so they stay crispy.
Taste, adjust seasoning if needed, and serve immediately.
