Background

This bean & pea salad is made with peas, fresh herbs and two types of beans. It's a lovely, crunchy salad during the summer that goes well with most roasts or barbecued/grilled meat. It only takes 10 minutes to throw together.

Ingredients

1 small romaine lettuce or 2 little gems
100g broad beans (podded)
100g sugarsnap peas or green peas
100g green beans
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp white wine vinegar
1 Tbsp chopped mint leaves
1 Tbsp chopped chives
1 Tbsp tarragon leaves

Instructions

Cut the lettuce in half lengthwise, then rinse and dry.
Blanch the vegetables in boiling water for 2-3 minutes, rinse with cold water or place them in ice-cold water for a couple of minutes. Drain and dry with a tea towel.
Squeeze the broad beans out of their shell/skins if you don't like eating them whole.
Mix the oil, vinegar and chopped herbs.
Arrange the lettuce, beans and peas in a large serving dish, season to taste, then toss with the dressing.
Garnish with some herb leaves.
