Method

  • step 1

    In a bowl, toss mushrooms with half the lemon juice and set aside – the lemon juice will soften the mushrooms. Blanch the beans in boiling salted water for 5-6 mins until they still have a crunch, but they are not squeaky, then drain and cool in iced water.

  • step 2

    Toss the beans and mushrooms together in a bowl with the herbs and season with salt and pepper. Toss through the tomatoes, remaining lemon juice and the olive oil and scatter with Parmesan just before serving.

Lovely recipe but, for me, too much lemon juice. I shall probably stick with the juice of half a lemon next time.

I really like this recipe, so quick and easy to make. I normally make a salad by combining everything in the fridge in a bowl and hoping it works out! So it was great to follow a recipe and it work out so well.

I added pine nuts as well and thought it was a great addition. 75g of Parmesan was way…

I've made this salad numerous times now and everyone says how tasty it is! Great flavour combo. For extra flavour and crunch add some toasted pine nuts!

A lovely subtle salad for hot summer days. I added some home-made chunky croutons and some goat's cheese to make it more of a main meal, and used mint and basil as the herbs as that's all I would get hold of!
