Simple Raw Zucchini Salad

zucc salad

Method

  • On a mandolin, slice the zucchini into thin strips
  • In a non-reactive bowl, toss the zucchini strips with the olive oil, juice and a pinch of salt (add the peas and beans if you are using)
  • Taste as you go to get the right balance of sour and salty
  • Add a few picked thyme leaves
  • Leave at room temperature for 30 minutes
  • The zucchini will wilt a little and take on the flavours of the oil, lemon and salt
  • Split the dressed zucchini between the four plates and sprinkle with parmesan and/or the feta if using
  • If you have any flowers, roughly chop them and scatter over the top
