Method

  1. MAKE THE DRESSING: In a small bowl, stir together the honey, balsamic vinegar and shallot. Now whisking, slowly drizzle in the olive oil, then season to taste.
  2. PREPARE THE SALAD: Dry roast the almonds in a small pan, tossing the pan often so the nuts brown all over but do not burn. Slice the nectarines thinly. Put the watercress or mixed salad leaves and the nectarines on 4 plates and drizzle over the dressing, crumble over the goat's cheese. Grind black pepper over and scatter with the almonds.

Based on a recipe from Rebar Modern Food Cookbook by Audrey Alsterberg and Wanda Urbanowicz, published by Big Ideas Publishing Inc.

Taste team comment

'The almonds complemented the other ingredients - they also looked colourful on the plate. Perfect for an informal supper served outdoors.'
