Directions

30 min.
1. Step

Mix blackcurrants with capers, allowing the blackcurrants to absorb the vinegar juices and plump up.

2. Step

Toast nuts/seeds until nicely browned, tossing them often. Ensure they cool completely before adding them to the salad.

3. Step

Make sure all nuts/seeds/freekeh/lentils have cooled before mixing them into the salad to avoid cooking the herbs.

4. Step

Mix all salad ingredients just before serving to maintain the crunchiness of the nuts. Adjust the dressing as needed.

5. Step

The salad is delicious on its own, but you can optionally prepare a dressing by combining Greek yoghurt, ground cumin, and honey.

6. Step

This salad is a perfect side dish for cooked meats and ideal for Sunday barbecues or gatherings. Enjoy!
