Ingredients

  • white wine vinegar 100 ml
  • sugar 1 tbsp
  • cucumber ½
  • red onion ½ (sliced)
  • cherry tomatoes 200 g (sliced)
  • peaches 2 (sliced)
  • dairy free yoghurt 60 ml
  • butter beans 800 g (drained)
  • spinach 200 g
  • fresh mint 1 handful
  • radish 100 g (sliced)

Method

  • Make the pickle for the red onion and peaches: Heat the white wine vinegar and sugar in a small pan on a medium heat, until the sugar dissolves. Set aside until step 3 while you get on with your prep
  • Smack the cucumber with a rolling pin until it starts to break apart. Thinly slice the smacked pieces. Leave to drain in a sieve over a bowl with a generous pinch of salt
  • Pickle the red onion and peaches: Thinly slice the red onion. Pour half of the pickle from step 1 over the red onion in a small bowl. Add a pinch of salt to the onion and mix well. Thinly slice the peaches. Keep back a teaspoon of the pickle. Pour the rest of the pickle over the peaches.
  • Slice the cherry tomatoes in half. Pick the mint leaves. Thinly slice the radishes.
  • Make the dressing by mixing the reserved teaspoon of the pickle with the yoghurt and the water that drains from the cucumber. Stir well and season to taste
  • Assemble the salad. Toss the butter beans, radishes, spinach, cucumber and red onion together. Scatter the peaches and mint on top and drizzle with the yoghurt dressing.
