This vibrant romaine and rocket salad is a masterclass in texture and minimalist flavour. By combining the crisp, structural leaves of romaine with the peppery bite of baby rocket, you create a refreshing base that perfectly complements the zesty lemon dressing. The highlight of this dish is the homemade seed sprinkle, where toasted sesame and crushed coriander seeds provide an aromatic crunch and a nutty depth that elevates the simple greenery.
As a versatile vegan side dish, this salad pairs beautifully with grilled vegetables, Mediterranean mains or a light summer pasta. The seeds and dressing can be prepared up to eight hours in advance, making it an excellent choice for stress-free entertaining or a quick, healthy lunch. It is a light yet satisfying way to add more leafy greens to your daily routine.
