Peach & Kern Salad
Grilled peaches, candied pecans and shavings of Cornish Kern. A bright salad made for summer that leans into caramel flavours.
Serves 2 as a main, 3 as a side
Ingredients
- 1 bag of lamb’s lettuce (or similar)
- 2 ripe peaches
- 100g pecan nuts
- 50g caster sugar
- Shaved Kern cheese (tailor to your taste!)
Dressing
- 50ml cider vinegar
- 50ml olive oil
- 1 tsp wholegrain mustard
- 25g honey
Method
- Prepare the dressing by blending all ingredients in a jug using a food processor or stick blender.
- Candy the pecans: Melt sugar over low heat until caramelised. Stir in the pecans, then pour onto baking paper to cool. Be careful – both sugar and pan will be hot.
- Grill the peaches: Cut into quarters, rub with olive oil, and sear on a hot griddle pan for about a minute on each side.
- Assemble the salad by combining all elements and serving fresh.
- Enjoy!
