Good food needn’t be complicated or fiddly. Take this salad for example; it’s absolutely delicious and prepared in minutes!

The slightly soured taste of goat’s cheese perfectly balances the deep, full flavour of smoky parma ham. Both ingredients are lifted by the bright ‘tang’ of vinaigrette, which cuts through the richness and refreshes the palette.

I’ve also added some finely sliced scotch-bonnet chilli to give the whole thing a polite background kick! This is naturally up to you entirely. The dish is equally delicious without it!

Place your rocket and mixed leaves into the base of your salad-bowl. Layer on slices or parma ham and rondelles of goat’s cheese.

Finely chop a spring onion and scatter this over, followed by micro-thin slices of chilli, if you chose to use it.

Spoon your vinaigrette at intervals over the salad, then finish the dish with a good squeeze of lime and lavish grind of pepper.

Hey presto! A healthy, delicious low-carb salad in minutes! Good food doesn’t get any easier than this!
