An easy green salad with rocket, avocado and fresh berries, topped with burrata and a pistachio vinaigrette.
A little taste of a sunny summer’s day – one that is just as welcome on a rainy winter’s day.
The flavours, the colours and the combination of fresh berries, slightly bitter rocket and creamy burrata work beautifully together. The salad is finished with a vinaigrette of lemon, a little mustard and finely chopped pistachios – simple and delicious.
Rocket salad with burrata and fresh berries can be served alongside a whole host of dishes, but it goes especially well with white meat such as chicken and pork. Serve it with a simply pan-fried chicken breast, or pair it with spiced chicken skewers or a pork chop with lemon and herbs.
