What you’ll need:

For the salad:

  • 100g watercress

  • 1 head of red chicory

  • 1 can mock duck

  • 2 oranges

  • 59g pomegranate seeds

  • 50g walnuts

For the dressing:

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 piece of ginger

  • Juice of 1 lime

  • 1 tbsp maple syrup

  • Salt and pepper

How to do it:

  1. Make the dressing: Peel and finely grate the ginger. In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the grated ginger, lime juice, olive oil, maple syrup, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside to let the flavours meld.

  2. Prep the oranges: Peel and slice the oranges into rounds or segments, removing any seeds.

  3. Assemble the salad: Drain the mock duck and gently shred or break it into bite-sized pieces. On a serving platter, layer the watercress and torn red chicory leaves. Add the mock duck, orange slices, pomegranate seeds, and walnuts.

  4. Dress and serve: Drizzle the ginger-lime dressing over the top just before serving. Finish with a little black pepper if desired.
