Grilled Radishes, Fennel and Asparagus Salad with a Caper Dressing Recipe

A delicious and colourful salad that can be prepared and cooked in less than 15 minutes. Radishes are packed full of vitamins, iron and potassium

Serves

4 (as a side)

Preparation time:

10 minutes

Cooking time:

5-10 minutes

Ingredients:

2 tbsp olive oil

150g radishes cut in half

1 large bulb fennel, sliced

200g asparagus, trimmed

4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1 tbsp sherry vinegar

½ red onion, finely chopped

2 tbsp baby capers

Salt and pepper

Small bunch of dill, chopped

Method:

1. Preheat a large griddle pan and lightly dress all the vegetables in olive oil.

2. While you are waiting for the griddle to warm up, mix together in a small bowl the olive oil and sherry vinegar, then add the onion and capers, season with salt and pepper and set aside.

3. Grill the vegetables on both sides in a single layer in the griddle pan, until the bar marks start to appear. This usually takes a couple of minutes. You may need to do this in a couple of batches if all the vegetables do not fit on the grill.

4. Once cooked, arrange on a serving dish, season with salt and pepper, drizzle over the dressing and scatter with the chopped dill. Serve at once.
