salad inspiration

A simple salad bought from Amelie & Friends in Chichester - a slice of lettuce (cross section really of the whole lettuce approximately 1 cm wide) with a dollop of creme fraiche and chives on top, with roasted tomato halves and a carefully perched crispy piece of pancetta. A perfect summer starter.  I always find myself inspired at this counter. Whether it be a few roasted butternut squash slices placed in a pile with creme fraiche, a slice of green chilli, segment of lime and coriander leaf garnish or roasted beetroot with goats cheese and walnuts.  Lemon couscous with flaked almonds, parsley, crispy fried red onions, sultanas and apricots! Just a few lovely ingredients and a splash of creativity. Pity about the photography, compliments of my hipstamatic iphone... doesn't do it justice!
