SERVES 6, as a side

Part of our Easter Feast, this simple dish brightens any plate. We love getting guests involved by podding the broad beans, a small ritual before lunch begins. Once that’s done, the hard work is over!

Ingredients

1kg frozen broad beans
½ cup slivered almonds
5 spring onions, thinly sliced
5 radishes, thinly sliced
1 block feta, crumbled
Handful of mint and parsley, chopped
Juice of half a lemon
Olive oil
Sea salt

Method

Step 1.

Bring a medium saucepan of water to the boil. Add the broad beans and cook for 5 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking.

Step 2.

Once cool enough to handle, remove the outer skins by using your fingernail to make a small incision in the skin, then give them a gentle squeeze to pop out the bean. . This step is a little time-consuming, but its worth it!

Step 3.

Place the peeled beans in a large bowl. Add the spring onion, radishes, slivered almonds and herbs.

Step 4.

Crumble over the feta, then dress with olive oil, lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Toss gently to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed and serve
