Shaved Asparagus and Pistachio Salad

Ingredients

For the salad

• 125g asparagus
• 60g rocket
• 50g vegetarian feta cheese, crumbled
• 2 spring onions, thinly sliced
• 30g shelled pistachio, toasted and roughly chopped

For the dressing

• 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
• 1 tbsp runny honey
• 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• salt and pepper, for seasoning

Method

1. Prepare the asparagus: Wash the asparagus and trim away the tough ends. Using a vegetable peeler, shave the asparagus into thin ribbons straight into a large salad bowl.
2. Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and honey. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking continuously until the dressing is well combined and emulsified. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Assemble the Salad: In the large salad bowl, combine the shaved asparagus, rocket, feta cheese, and spring onions. Drizzle the honey mustard dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat the vegetables evenly. Sprinkle the toasted pistachios over the top of the salad.
4. Serve immediately.
