Green Bean and Baby Corn Salad

 

This easy to prepare side dish is perfect for freshening up a meal.

Prepare ahead and leave in the fridge so it infuses the flavours.

For the dressing you will need:

• Olive Oil
• Cider Vinegar
• Lime Juice (fresh of bottled)
• Something sweet - I use Agave Nectar, but maple syrup works too.
• Chilli flakes if you like to spice things up a bit.

Mix together equal amounts of olive oil and cider vinegar  (I used half a table spoon of each for this amount) then add about a quarter of that measurement of lime, then squidge in the sweet stuff until it tastes nice.  Then add a little salt, pepper and chilli flakes if liked.

Get a pan of water ready boiling, then drop in your green beans  (mine were yellow green beans!) baby corn and mange tout  (I added this because it came in a pack with the baby corn)

You can more or less use any of these kind of veggies.

Just give it a rapid boil for about 5 minutes - no longer.  Then remove from the water and drain on a clean tea towel.  Give them a pat to dry.

When cold, chop the veggies up into small pieces and toss in the dressing. Keep in the fridge until needed.

Enjoy!
