Shake all the dressing ingredients in a sealed jar with some seasoning. Alternatively, whisk together in a small bowl. Pour over the salad, then gently stir to coat. Cover and chill for at least 2 hrs or overnight.
Bring the salad out of the fridge 30 mins before serving. Spoon onto a serving plate and sprinkle with a pinch of paprika, remembering that a little goes a long way.
