The combination of fresh mint, honey mustard dressing and Cheshire/Lancashire cheese gives this salad a unique and delicious flavour. Although it is a salad, the new potatoes and cheese make it quite filling. It’s a salad that eats like a meal!
Ingredients:
- 500g new potatoes
- 350g runner beans
- A bunch of spring onions
- 240g tin of sun-dried tomatoes, drained
- 200g cheshire/lancashire cheese
- a good handful of fresh mint leaves (a 15g packet from the supermarket is fine), roughly chopped
- 4-5 tbsp honey and mustard dressing
Method of preparation:
Boil the new potatoes in salted water until tender, then drain and leave to cool.
While the potatoes are cooking, trim the runner beans and cut into bite-sized pieces. Steam or boil until crisp, then rinse under cold water to stop cooking.
Slice the spring onions and add to a large salad bowl.
Cut the sunflower or sundried tomatoes into smaller pieces if necessary and add to the bowl.
Crumble the Cheshire/Lancashire cheese and add to the salad.
When the potatoes and beans have cooled, add them to the bowl.
Sprinkle the chopped mint leaves over the top.
Drizzle the honey and mustard dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
