Fresh and zesty, this makes a great starter or side salad
Servs 4
Method
Zest and juice all the citrus fruits for the dressing, add the sugar and the salt. Measure the juice then add an equal amount of oil, put to one side.
Shred the vegetables at thinly as possible, a mandolin is good for this but if you don’t have one then use your best knife and cut finely.
Toss the vegetables through the dressing, add in the orange segments, the almonds, a pinch of salt and a twist of pepper.
Pile onto plates then pour some extra dressing and finish with the fennel tops or some parsley.
