Tenderstem, apple, and toasted hazelnut salad recipe
“This recipe is really quick and a great example of vegetables as comfort food - it’s sweet, satisfying and tangy."
Try to use Pink Lady apples as their juicy sweetness and floral aroma will raise this to another level. This will make a great starter or simply double the quantities for a delicious main course.

Step-by-step
- Place the yoghurt, horseradish sauce and 1 tbsp of rapeseed oil in a bowl and whisk to combine.
- Crush the hazelnuts into chunks and set aside. Core the apple and slice thinly.
- Heat 1 tsp of rapeseed oil in a medium sauce pan until very hot and then add the Tenderstem. Immediately cover with a lid and shake it well to turn over the florets.
- Cook on full heat for 30 seconds and then shake again.
- Cook for a further 30 seconds and remove from the heat. The Tenderstem should have crisp, golden brown bits and be vibrant green. The texture should be al dente. If it is still not gone golden return to the heat in 15 seconds bursts until it is ready.
- Sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt and toss one more time.
- Place a pile of watercress on each plate, lay the Tenderstem over the top and sprinkle the apple and hazelnuts over the top. Dress generously with the horseradish, yoghurt sauce and serve whilst still hot.
