Method

Step 1 of 5

Get yourself a big chopping board and a large sharp knife. Peel and roughly slice the onion, trim and slice the radishes then peel and roughly slice the carrots. Slice up the cucumber and tomatoes. Bring everything into the centre of the board and keep chopping and mixing together until all the veg is all roughly the same size.

Step 2 of 5

Click off and discard the tatty outer leaves from the lettuces, separate the leaves and chop the lettuce leaves into the vegetables, then scoop everything into a bowl. Cut the apple into matchsticks, then add to the bowl and toss well.

Step 3 of 5

To make the dressing, measure 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil in a clean jam jar. Add 1 tablespoon of vinegar and season with mixed herbs, sea salt, and freshly ground pepper. Then secure the lid and give it a good shake.

Step 4 of 5

Place a small dry frying pan over a medium heat, add the sunflower or pumpkin seeds and keep them moving until golden and toasted.

Step 5 of 5

Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss to coat, then sprinkle over the toasted seeds and poppy seeds. Delicious served as is, or with Created With Jamie Crunchy Cajun Chicken Pieces for a more substantial option.
