RECIPE FROM SPAIN:

Asparagus Salad

This simple salad is lovely as a starter, accompaniment or healthy tapas dish. It is full of favour and colour.

You will need:

150g fresh green asparagus
2 medium tomatoes
2 medium potatoes
50g sweet corn
Olive oil
Salt and pepper to season

Method

• Boil the potatoes for about 8 minutes until cooked but still firm, drain and allow to cool.

• Trim the ends of the asparagus, removing any hard bits then blanch in boiling water for a few minutes until just tender, drain and allow to cool.

• When cool, peel the potatoes and cut into bite sized pieces, then cut the tomatoes into similar sized chunks.

• Arrange the potatoes, tomatoes, sweet corn and asparagus onto a serving dish, drizzle with olive oil and then season.

This is the basic Spanish recipe and you can add different ingredients such as cucumber, red or yellow pepper, olives or apple.
