Blueberry, Nectarine and Feta Salad

 

 

 

 

 



. 

Blueberries and Nectarines are both in season now and I couldn't resist combining them in a summery salad. It may sound like an unusual combination, but it works!.

 

Ingredients:

 

1 large or 2 small nectarines

1 punnet of blueberries ( you will 10 of these for the dressing)

Sliced feta cheese

Mesclun salad leaves
Basil leaves

For dressing

10 blueberries

2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar

1/2 teaspoon of honey (or to taste)

4 tablespoons of olive oil

Sea salt

Method

Mash the blueberries in a mortar and pestle ( use marble , or do in a ceranic bowl as it might stain wood). Add salt , oil, balsamic and honey. Stir till honey is dissolved. Season to taste with sea salt.

Salad:

On plate arrange mesclun mixed with basil leaves.

Scatter blueberries, nectarine slices, and feta over the top.

Drizzle with the balsamic blueberry vinaigrette.

Enjoy!
