Green Salad with Pumpkin Seed Dressing

Step 1

Heat a dry frying pan over a medium heat, then add the pumpkin seeds and toast them for a few minutes, shaking often until they just start to darken slightly. Reserve 2 tablespoons of them to garnish, and pour the remainder into a food processor or blender. Add the rest of the dressing ingredients, plus 2 tbsp of water, and blitz until fairly smooth.

Step 2

To assemble the salad, chop the radicchio into bite sized pieces and add them to a large serving bowl with the other salad leaves then toss.

Step 3

Core the pear and apple and thinly slice them with the skins on. Add them to the salad along with the dressing and toss.

Step 4

Serve sprinkled with the parsley, reserved pumpkin seeds and sesame seeds and season with salt and pepper.
