Method

step 1

First make the dressing. Whisk the ingredients together with a good pinch each of salt and freshly ground black pepper, or shake together in a jar until emulsified.
step 2

Trim the courgettes, then cut into long ribbons using a vegetable peeler. Tip into a large bowl with the tomatoes, beans, salad leaves and herbs, and toss everything together using your hands to combine.
step 3

Drizzle over the dressing and scatter over the parmesan shavings, toss again and tip into a salad bowl or platter to serve.
