New potato, watercress, and daikon salad with smoked fish

watrcress salad

Method

  • Toss everything (except fish) together, plate up, and scattered flakes of smoked fish over top
  • A cold glass of your favourite aromatic white is a must
  • Or try Judge Rock’s rose – it’d be a perfect match! Note: Boiled eggs, capers, gherkins, horseradish, wasabi, anchovies would all be great additions or substitutes to this salad
  • Complementing fresh market produce with whatever you have at hand in pantry or fridge makes for an extra satisfying dish

Comments

With the body of new potatoes and the richness of smoked fish this salad is a complete meal and ideal for a fast, fresh, alfresco dinner.
