METHOD
DIFFICULTY: Easy 10 MINSPeel the carrot and cucumber with a vegetable peeler and place into a bowl.
Slice the fennel with a mandolin or cut with a knife as finely as you can, keeping any fronds from the top to add to your salad.
If you’ve got fresh, young broad beans, add these to the salad raw. Alternatively, lightly blanch, remove any outer husks and add to the salad. Add the mangetout, roughly chopped herbs and fennel fronds and toss everything together.
To make the dressing, begin by crushing the garlic. Add to a bowl with the remaining ingredients and whisk together until combined. Taste and add more seasoning or lemon as required.
Spoon the dressing over the shaved salad, toss once more and divide between two serving plates. Top with more herbs and your toasted sesame seeds and serve.
