3 heirloom tomatoes, chopped into halves and quarters
1 punnet of mixed cherry tomatoes, chopped in half
2 handfuls of mixed salad leaf
2 shallots, finely sliced
2 tbsp of apple cider vinegar

Method:

 

1. Prep and cut all your salad ingredients.

2. In a saucepan, add your shallots, apple cider vinegar, honey, olive oil and a pinch of salt & pepper. Sauté until the shallots soak up the liquid and they brown slightly.

3. Start to arrange your salad in a shallow salad bowl, starting with mixed lettuce, and working from biggest ingredients, to smallest. Topping with finely mint, chopped dill and edible flowers. Drizzle with the crumbled feta and oil. Season as required.
