Lemon Vinaigrette

A punchy vinaigrette to add to your salad or a side dish of mixed greens, you can add a little or a lot.

Ingredients for Vinaigrette:

4 tbsp of lemon juice

2 tbsp of white wine vinegar

200ml of best quality extra virgin olive oil

Method:

Add all elements into a jug and mix with a hand whisk, add a little pepper and a pinch of sea salt and voila, you are done. Add to that smashing Gorgonzola, walnut, fennel and rocket salad I mentioned earlier, see below….

Gorgonzola, Walnut, Fennel, Rocket Salad for One

Ingredients:

40g Roasted Walnuts (bake in oven for five minutes on moderate heat to roast them, better if roasted)

20g Gorgonzola Cheese or a big slice if you love it cut into small 1cm pieces

Handful of Rocket/Arugula

Fennel Bulb, just cut some thin slices off the bottom of the bulb if just making this for one

Method:

Layer all ingredients onto a plate and pour a generous amount of the Lemon Vinaigrette over the salad, too easy!

You can make more if cooking for more than one by adjusting quantities of each ingredient. Enjoy!

Gorgonzola is a fine blue veined cheese that originates in Italy, it is strong and deeply flavoured,

generally a little goes a long way…Add it to dips, salads with Bosc pear, cheese platters, pasta sauces……
