Salads
New potato and radish salad
Tender, waxy potatoes and crunchy fresh radishes. This is a quick and healthy version of potato salad. If you'd like it a little creamier, stir in a spoonful of crème fraîche. Add a few chopped gherkins for piquancy, and some grilled halloumi to make it a light lunch.
